To be a fast runner, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you need strong muscles, a powerful heart, determination and symmetrical (对称的) knees. That’s what scientists 1 after they studied some of the world’s top runners.
Science has shown tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t animals and people with symmetrical 2 are more likely to be stronger and 3 than those whose bodies are not symmetrical. But this is the first time researchers have been able to 4 who will be the fastest runners just by measuring their knees.
Scientist Trivers kne ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w symmetrical knees could 5 runners. In an earlier study, he showed that children who had more symmetrical knees at age 8 developed into the 6 runners when they were 22. Then he wanted to know why symmetry made such a(n) 7 in top athletes. To find out, he brought a team of 8 to a nation in the Caribbean. They measured the knees, ankles (脚踝), and feet of 73 good runners at the MVP Track and Field Club in Kingston. They found that symmetrical knees make running 9 .
The researche ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs then took the same measurements from 116 local non-runners who were about the same 10 and sizes as the athletes. “Good runners had more symmetrical knees than 11 people,” Trivers says. “Their ankles were also 12 more symmetrical.” But their feet were not special.
That’s not so surpr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ising. Their knees move up and down, pushing them forward when people 13 in a race. Having symmetrical knees allows an athlete to behave 14 .
The study is impo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rtant because it adds to long-term research about how symmetry 15 our bodies over the course of our lifetime, says John Manning.

II阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
A易
I visited Ro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me with two friends last week. History not only fills this ancient and modern city, but is brought to life by it.
The afternoon and m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orning that we could explore Rome were not enough for us to go around the city, but our tour guide made these few hours the most rewarding part of our trip.
We began with a qui ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ck tour of the Vatican, through storied hallways linking the entrance of the Vatican Museums with the Sistine Chapel and onto St. Peter’s Basilica. The highest levels of art are seen everywhere: Michelangelo’s famous ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, very early, but detailed maps of Italian towns and the entire Italian Peninsula, the surprising columns and domes (高柱和圆屋顶) that make up the great building of St. Peter’s. Then we exited through St. Peter’s Square. Outside in the square we looked at this huge and beautiful church and had our first sense of the layering (层次感) of history. The church was built in the 16th century on the remains (遗迹) of the 4th-century old church built by Constantine (the first Holy Roman Emperor). The 4th-century old church itself was probably built on the remains of a smaller church which used to be the grave of St. Peter.
A short ride on t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he subway brought us to the foot of the Spanish Steps. And our walk then led us to the amazing Trevi Fountain and onto the huge Monument to Vittorio Emmanuelle.
Returning the next m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orning, our tour focused on the landmarks of ancient Rome. We met our guide outside the wonderful Campidoglio. There we climbed its steps and explored the beautiful works of art made in the Renaissance period before walking around to catch a great view of the ancient Roman Forum. From there we walked to the Coliseum to learn about the amusements of Ancient Rome. Then we went to see the remains of some ancient temples.
26. In the writer’s opinion, history .
A. can bring Rome back to life
B. makes Rome well-known to the world
C. can add beauty and liveliness to a city
D. is both a city’s cultural card and its soul
27. Which place of interest made the writer most shocked
A. The Vatican Museums. B. The Church of St. Peter.
C. The Sistine Chapel. D. St. Peter’s Basilica.
28. What’s the CORRECT order of the writer visiting Rome
① Monument to Vittorio Emmanuelle ② the Spanish Steps
③ the wonderful Campidoglio ④ St. Peter’s Square2-1-c-n-j-y
A. ②④③① B. ④②①③ C. ④②③① D. ②④①③
29. The writer lea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rned about the amusements of ancient Rome at ______.21·cn·jy·com
A. the Coliseum B. the Campidoglio
C. the Trevi Fountain D. the ancient Roman Forum
30. What is the passage mainly about
A. Some reasons why Rome is worth a visit.
B. The writer’s time of doing sight-seeing in Rome.
C. Descriptions of some famous attractions in Rome.
D. The writer’s most unforgettable experience in Rome.
B中
I recently read a b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ook named Silent Spring written by Rachel Carson. In this book, she warned that some chemicals used in pesticides (杀虫剂) were polluting the air, the water, the earth, and all creatures on earth. After reading the book, I felt deeply concerned. So you may ask, “Are pesticides really dangerous to use ” My answer is yes. And here are my reasons.
Do harm to life in water
Pesticides do n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ot stay in one place. Their particles (颗粒) fly through the air when they are used, sinking into the soil in the end. The chemicals are then carried away by runoff water, often into rivers and oceans, where they can kill water plants. In the US, for example, pesticides flow into the Mississippi River every year. They then travel to the Gulf Coast, where the rest chemicals kill off yards of wetlands. According to experts, plants in rivers and oceans provide 80 percent of the oxygen content. When pesticides harm these plants, life in rivers and oceans will be harmed as a result.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
_____________________
Pesticides not only ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) go into water sources, causing problems there, but they also cause problems on land. When species on land often contact these chemicals, the result can be those animals’ lowered weight, lowered power to fight diseases, loss of attention, and even death.
Do harm to humans
Humans are not immune ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) (免疫的) to the effects that wildlife experiences. Pesticides may become part of the food eaten by humans. They remain and increase gradually in our bodies. Some chemicals in pesticides can cause cancer. They may also harm skin and lungs. Recent studies have shown that pesticides can affect human brainwave activity and cause loss of memory and inability to concentrate.
Now we can con ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )clude that pesticides are really dangerous to use. They should be replaced for the sake of nature and our health.
31. When reading th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e book Silent Spring, the writer was extremely _______.
A. interested B. bored C. inspired D. worried
32. Chemicals in pe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sticides can do harm to life in water mainly because _______.
A. their particles fly into rivers and oceans
B. pesticides are used to kill animals in water
C. running water carries them to rivers and oceans21*cnjy*com
D. food with such chemicals is used to feed life in water
33. What would be the best subtitle for Paragraph 3
A. Do harm to plants in water
B. Do harm to the environment
C. Do harm to wildlife on land
D. Do harm to food for wildlife
34. Recent studies show that pesticides can lead to ______.
A. cancer in humans
B. poor memory in humans
C. decrease in humans’ weight
D. damage to humans’ skin and lungs
35. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage 2·1·c·n·j·y
A. To persuade us not to use pesticides.
B. To encourage us to read Silent Spring.
C. To explain why we shouldn’t use pesticides.
D. To prove that pesticides are dangerous to use.

Cyclists in the Neth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erlands are riding on their way outside Amsterdam and toward a cleaner future on a solar bike road. SolaRoad, the world’s first road that turns sunlight into electricity was opened on November 12, 2014.
The 100-meter-long roa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d has solar cells (太阳能蓄电池) fitted in one traveling direction under a glass top layer about a centimeter thick, according to a statement from SolaRoad. The other lane, which does not have solar cells, will be used to test various top layers.
In the near future ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), the solar power from the road will be used for street lighting, traffic systems, household appliances, and electric cars which can drive on the surface. “This could be a big step in the field of clean energy supply. In particular, if the road concept will develop into a system, with which the electricity is transported to the vehicles driving on the road, then it means electricity can be handy at the place where it is needed.” said Innovator Sten de Wit.
The first part of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he roadway, which runs along the provincial road N203 in Krommenie, will be measured and tested. And then it will be further developed over the next three years. Developers will be finding out how it behaves in practice, how much energy it produces, and what it is like to bicycle over it. According to the company, the road technology was tested for safety before the surface was laid.
The company also poi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts out that pollution and general traffic dirt will affect the amount of light that passes through the top layer to the solar cells. But by preventing the top layer from dirt and putting the road under a proper slope (斜坡), they can make sure that the effects of pollution can be as small as possible.
A study shows tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t a return of investment (投资) is possible within 20 years, and developers are aiming for a payback period of 15 years or less.
36. What do we know about SolaRoad
A. It has a normal top layer.
B. It’s the first road to use sunlight.
C. It’s the world’s longest bike road.
D. It’s the world’s first solar bike road.
37. The other lane of the road will be used to ______.21世纪教育网版权所有
A. help find the proper solar cells
B. help find the proper top layer
C. provide electricity for street lights
D. provide electricity for electric cars
38. From Paragraph ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 4, it’s inferred that, for the first part of the roadway, ______.
A. it works well in practical use
B. it isn’t safe for cyclists to use now
C. there is still more room for development
D. it won’t be put into use in three years to come
39. According to Pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ragraph 5, for the lighting effect , the solar bike road ______.
A. should be kept very clean
B. couldn’t receive any water
C. should have several big slopes
D. should have a very wide surface
40. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage
A. To encourage us to use clean energy.
B. To encourage us to go out by bicycle.
C. To tell ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )about a bike road with solar lighting in the Netherlands.
D. To show ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) how the Netherlands cares about the environment pollution.

Pet lovers are always ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) arguing whether cats are better than dogs. Now there is a report showing that it may be a difficult choice — at least when it comes to drinking water.
In 2010, a team of res ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )earchers observed how some cats drank water. What they discovered was that cats had found an efficient and nice way to drink water. They began by gently touching the surface of the water with their tongue and then quickly pulled it back into their mouth. This quick action allowed some water to stick to the tongue. To ensure it would not roll out, the cats shut their mouth firmly after each drinking.
After finding out how ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cats drank water, nobody made an effort to find out how dogs drank water, largely because researchers believed they drank in a similar way. However, it turns out that this is not the case.
A recent study ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was performed by a team of researchers from Virginia Tech and Purdue University. The scientists began by studying the drinking habits of various dog kinds and sizes. What they discovered was that dogs hit their tongue past the water’s surface. It made them really dirty.
While this was s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urely a win for cats, dogs, on the other hand, drank much more water each time. It allows dogs to quench their thirst faster. The one thing they do have in common is the ability to close their mouth before the water rolls out.
In conclusion, while ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cats have found how to drink water in a nice manner, dogs drink water as quickly as they can. The scientists are not sure about the reason for the difference in their drinking methods. Some believe it may have to do with the fact that cats care about their fur, while others think it may be because cats hate water. Dogs, on the other hand, love getting wet.
41. In Paragraph 1, it’s reported that ______.
A. pet lovers usually prefer cats to dogs
B. cats have proved to be cleverer than dogs
C. cats are better at drinking water than dogs
D. it’s hard to decide whether cats or dogs are better
42. According to the 2010 study, researchers found that .
A. cats liked playing water joyfully when drinking
B. cats didn’t wet themselves when drinking water
C. cats drank water very slowly no matter how thirsty they were
D. cats sometimes rolled water out of their mouth when drinking
43. What does the w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )riter mean by saying “this is not the case” in Paragraph 3
A. Dogs are usually better than cats.
B. Dogs drink water differently from cats.
C. Researchers don’t know well about dogs.
D. Some people are more interested in how dogs drink.
44. The underline ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d word “quench” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by “______”.
A. know B. replace C. stop D. check
45. Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph
A. Dogs are the quickest drinkers among all animals.
B. Both cats and dogs love to play water when they drink.
C. Cats drink water slowly because they care about their fur.
D. There is n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o certain reason why cats drink water differently from dogs.

Around the square, we displayed pictures, which showed people about the present environmental situations. What’s more, we also explained the importance of environmental protection to the citizens. Through this activity, more and more people claimed that they would be willing to join the campaign and make their own effort to protect the environment.

To be a fast runner, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you need strong muscles, a powerful heart, determination and symmetrical (对称的) knees. That’s what scientists 1 after they studied some of the world’s top runners.
Science has shown tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t animals and people with symmetrical 2 are more likely to be stronger and 3 than those whose bodies are not symmetrical. But this is the first time researchers have been able to 4 who will be the fastest runners just by measuring their knees.
Scientist Trivers kne ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w symmetrical knees could 5 runners. In an earlier study, he showed that children who had more symmetrical knees at age 8 developed into the 6 runners when they were 22. Then he wanted to know why symmetry made such a(n) 7 in top athletes. To find out, he brought a team of 8 to a nation in the Caribbean. They measured the knees, ankles (脚踝), and feet of 73 good runners at the MVP Track and Field Club in Kingston. They found that symmetrical knees make running 9 .
The researche ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs then took the same measurements from 116 local non-runners who were about the same 10 and sizes as the athletes. “Good runners had more symmetrical knees than 11 people,” Trivers says. “Their ankles were also 12 more symmetrical.” But their feet were not special.
That’s not so surpr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ising. Their knees move up and down, pushing them forward when people 13 in a race. Having symmetrical knees allows an athlete to behave 14 .
The study is impo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rtant because it adds to long-term research about how symmetry 15 our bodies over the course of our lifetime, says John Manning.

A易
I visited Ro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me with two friends last week. History not only fills this ancient and modern city, but is brought to life by it.
The afternoon and m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orning that we could explore Rome were not enough for us to go around the city, but our tour guide made these few hours the most rewarding part of our trip.
We began with a qui ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ck tour of the Vatican, through storied hallways linking the entrance of the Vatican Museums with the Sistine Chapel and onto St. Peter’s Basilica. The highest levels of art are seen everywhere: Michelangelo’s famous ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, very early, but detailed maps of Italian towns and the entire Italian Peninsula, the surprising columns and domes (高柱和圆屋顶) that make up the great building of St. Peter’s. Then we exited through St. Peter’s Square. Outside in the square we looked at this huge and beautiful church and had our first sense of the layering (层次感) of history. The church was built in the 16th century on the remains (遗迹) of the 4th-century old church built by Constantine (the first Holy Roman Emperor). The 4th-century old church itself was probably built on the remains of a smaller church which used to be the grave of St. Peter.
A short ride on t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he subway brought us to the foot of the Spanish Steps. And our walk then led us to the amazing Trevi Fountain and onto the huge Monument to Vittorio Emmanuelle.
Returning the next m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orning, our tour focused on the landmarks of ancient Rome. We met our guide outside the wonderful Campidoglio. There we climbed its steps and explored the beautiful works of art made in the Renaissance period before walking around to catch a great view of the ancient Roman Forum. From there we walked to the Coliseum to learn about the amusements of Ancient Rome. Then we went to see the remains of some ancient temples.
26. In the writer’s opinion, history .
A. can bring Rome back to life
B. makes Rome well-known to the world
C. can add beauty and liveliness to a city
D. is both a city’s cultural card and its soul
27. Which place of interest made the writer most shocked
A. The Vatican Museums. B. The Church of St. Peter.
C. The Sistine Chapel. D. St. Peter’s Basilica.
28. What’s the CORRECT order of the writer visiting Rome
① Monument to Vittorio Emmanuelle ② the Spanish Steps
③ the wonderful Campidoglio ④ St. Peter’s Square2-1-c-n-j-y
A. ②④③① B. ④②①③ C. ④②③① D. ②④①③
29. The writer lea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rned about the amusements of ancient Rome at ______.21·cn·jy·com
A. the Coliseum B. the Campidoglio
C. the Trevi Fountain D. the ancient Roman Forum
30. What is the passage mainly about
A. Some reasons why Rome is worth a visit.
B. The writer’s time of doing sight-seeing in Rome.
C. Descriptions of some famous attractions in Rome.
D. The writer’s most unforgettable experience in Rome.

I recently read a b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ook named Silent Spring written by Rachel Carson. In this book, she warned that some chemicals used in pesticides (杀虫剂) were polluting the air, the water, the earth, and all creatures on earth. After reading the book, I felt deeply concerned. So you may ask, “Are pesticides really dangerous to use ” My answer is yes. And here are my reasons.
Do harm to life in water
Pesticides do n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ot stay in one place. Their particles (颗粒) fly through the air when they are used, sinking into the soil in the end. The chemicals are then carried away by runoff water, often into rivers and oceans, where they can kill water plants. In the US, for example, pesticides flow into the Mississippi River every year. They then travel to the Gulf Coast, where the rest chemicals kill off yards of wetlands. According to experts, plants in rivers and oceans provide 80 percent of the oxygen content. When pesticides harm these plants, life in rivers and oceans will be harmed as a result.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
_____________________
Pesticides not only ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) go into water sources, causing problems there, but they also cause problems on land. When species on land often contact these chemicals, the result can be those animals’ lowered weight, lowered power to fight diseases, loss of attention, and even death.
Do harm to humans
Humans are not immune ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) (免疫的) to the effects that wildlife experiences. Pesticides may become part of the food eaten by humans. They remain and increase gradually in our bodies. Some chemicals in pesticides can cause cancer. They may also harm skin and lungs. Recent studies have shown that pesticides can affect human brainwave activity and cause loss of memory and inability to concentrate.
Now we can con ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )clude that pesticides are really dangerous to use. They should be replaced for the sake of nature and our health.
31. When reading th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e book Silent Spring, the writer was extremely _______.
A. interested B. bored C. inspired D. worried
32. Chemicals in pe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sticides can do harm to life in water mainly because _______.
A. their particles fly into rivers and oceans
B. pesticides are used to kill animals in water
C. running water carries them to rivers and oceans21*cnjy*com
D. food with such chemicals is used to feed life in water
33. What would be the best subtitle for Paragraph 3
A. Do harm to plants in water
B. Do harm to the environment
C. Do harm to wildlife on land
D. Do harm to food for wildlife
34. Recent studies show that pesticides can lead to ______.
A. cancer in humans
B. poor memory in humans
C. decrease in humans’ weight
D. damage to humans’ skin and lungs
35. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage 2·1·c·n·j·y
A. To persuade us not to use pesticides.
B. To encourage us to read Silent Spring.
C. To explain why we shouldn’t use pesticides.
D. To prove that pesticides are dangerous to use.

Cyclists in the Neth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erlands are riding on their way outside Amsterdam and toward a cleaner future on a solar bike road. SolaRoad, the world’s first road that turns sunlight into electricity was opened on November 12, 2014.
The 100-meter-long roa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d has solar cells (太阳能蓄电池) fitted in one traveling direction under a glass top layer about a centimeter thick, according to a statement from SolaRoad. The other lane, which does not have solar cells, will be used to test various top layers.
In the near future ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), the solar power from the road will be used for street lighting, traffic systems, household appliances, and electric cars which can drive on the surface. “This could be a big step in the field of clean energy supply. In particular, if the road concept will develop into a system, with which the electricity is transported to the vehicles driving on the road, then it means electricity can be handy at the place where it is needed.” said Innovator Sten de Wit.
The first part of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he roadway, which runs along the provincial road N203 in Krommenie, will be measured and tested. And then it will be further developed over the next three years. Developers will be finding out how it behaves in practice, how much energy it produces, and what it is like to bicycle over it. According to the company, the road technology was tested for safety before the surface was laid.
The company also poi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts out that pollution and general traffic dirt will affect the amount of light that passes through the top layer to the solar cells. But by preventing the top layer from dirt and putting the road under a proper slope (斜坡), they can make sure that the effects of pollution can be as small as possible.
A study shows tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t a return of investment (投资) is possible within 20 years, and developers are aiming for a payback period of 15 years or less.
36. What do we know about SolaRoad
A. It has a normal top layer.
B. It’s the first road to use sunlight.
C. It’s the world’s longest bike road.
D. It’s the world’s first solar bike road.
37. The other lane of the road will be used to ______.21世纪教育网版权所有
A. help find the proper solar cells
B. help find the proper top layer
C. provide electricity for street lights
D. provide electricity for electric cars
38. From Paragraph ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 4, it’s inferred that, for the first part of the roadway, ______.
A. it works well in practical use
B. it isn’t safe for cyclists to use now
C. there is still more room for development
D. it won’t be put into use in three years to come
39. According to Pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ragraph 5, for the lighting effect , the solar bike road ______.
A. should be kept very clean
B. couldn’t receive any water
C. should have several big slopes
D. should have a very wide surface
40. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage
A. To encourage us to use clean energy.
B. To encourage us to go out by bicycle.
C. To tell ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )about a bike road with solar lighting in the Netherlands.
D. To show ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) how the Netherlands cares about the environment pollution.

Pet lovers are always ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) arguing whether cats are better than dogs. Now there is a report showing that it may be a difficult choice — at least when it comes to drinking water.
In 2010, a team of res ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )earchers observed how some cats drank water. What they discovered was that cats had found an efficient and nice way to drink water. They began by gently touching the surface of the water with their tongue and then quickly pulled it back into their mouth. This quick action allowed some water to stick to the tongue. To ensure it would not roll out, the cats shut their mouth firmly after each drinking.
After finding out how ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cats drank water, nobody made an effort to find out how dogs drank water, largely because researchers believed they drank in a similar way. However, it turns out that this is not the case.
A recent study ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was performed by a team of researchers from Virginia Tech and Purdue University. The scientists began by studying the drinking habits of various dog kinds and sizes. What they discovered was that dogs hit their tongue past the water’s surface. It made them really dirty.
While this was s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urely a win for cats, dogs, on the other hand, drank much more water each time. It allows dogs to quench their thirst faster. The one thing they do have in common is the ability to close their mouth before the water rolls out.
In conclusion, while ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cats have found how to drink water in a nice manner, dogs drink water as quickly as they can. The scientists are not sure about the reason for the difference in their drinking methods. Some believe it may have to do with the fact that cats care about their fur, while others think it may be because cats hate water. Dogs, on the other hand, love getting wet.
41. In Paragraph 1, it’s reported that ______.
A. pet lovers usually prefer cats to dogs
B. cats have proved to be cleverer than dogs
C. cats are better at drinking water than dogs
D. it’s hard to decide whether cats or dogs are better
42. According to the 2010 study, researchers found that .
A. cats liked playing water joyfully when drinking
B. cats didn’t wet themselves when drinking water
C. cats drank water very slowly no matter how thirsty they were
D. cats sometimes rolled water out of their mouth when drinking
43. What does the w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )riter mean by saying “this is not the case” in Paragraph 3
A. Dogs are usually better than cats.
B. Dogs drink water differently from cats.
C. Researchers don’t know well about dogs.
D. Some people are more interested in how dogs drink.
44. The underline ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d word “quench” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by “______”.
A. know B. replace C. stop D. check
45. Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph
A. Dogs are the quickest drinkers among all animals.
B. Both cats and dogs love to play water when they drink.
C. Cats drink water slowly because they care about their fur.
D. There is n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o certain reason why cats drink water differently from dogs.

In order to call ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on the citizens to protect the environment, 100 volunteers from our city held an activity last Saturday, hoping the citizens can travel by bike or on foot more. We went to the city square by bike and started to hand out publicity materials to people passing by, calling on them to go out in a green way. Around the square, we displayed pictures, which showed people about the present environmental situations. What’s more, we also explained the importance of environmental protection to the citizens. Through this activity, more and more people claimed that they would be willing to join the campaign and make their own effort to protect the environment.
