三、阅读理解
阅读下面三篇语言材料，然后按文后要求做题。
A
I used to have a friend called Matilda. We were together at secondary school. When we were 16, she moved because of her father’s job, but we kept in touch. We used to write long letters to each other. I went to stay with her a couple of times too. We lost contact (联系) after university. I’d love to see her again because we used to be really good friends.
I used to hate a couple of teachers at school, but I think the one I hated the most was my French teacher. He was really terrible. I don’t think he liked children or even teaching. He used to be impatient with us and he didn’t explain things well. I failed French — it was the only subject I ever failed at school.
I used to play a lot of squash (壁球), but I recently started playing tennis and now I like it better. The problem with squash is that it’s pretty hard and maybe I’m just not strong enough to play it. Also the friend I used to play with always beat me. The great thing about tennis is that it’s outdoors so I can enjoy the fresh air. It’s less competitive and more fun. The only problem is that you can’t play when it rains.

B
Over the last few centuries, there have been many changes in our lives.
To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable cars, and more and more people can travel by plane.
Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines.
Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions (条件) were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things.
Finally, nowadays, more and more people have the chance to get a good education. In the past, there were fewer schools and the quality of education was much poorer. Now education is free for primary and middle school students. Also, it is much easier to find the educational materials that you need on the Internet now.
The scientific and technological development in the world is amazing. Life now is much better than it used to be. And we are still creating new things to make our lives better and easier.

A. Why there was no running water in many houses.
B. The changes of living conditions.
C. Why people didn’t like fridges before.
D. How many modern things a family has.
( )33. What does the writer think of education now
A. It’s easy to get the chance of education.
B. Education is very expensive.
C. We still need to build more schools.
D. The quality of education is still poor.
( )34. What will life be like many years later according to the writer
A. Just the same as it’s now.
B. Much worse than it’s now.
C. Much better than it’s now.
D. A little worse than it’s now.
( )35. What does the passage mainly tell us

C. People do work more easily because of modern machines.
D. Great changes have taken place in our lives in the last few centuries.
C
We sometimes call the lion “the king of the jungle” because it is stronger and more dangerous than other animals. 36 It is the highest animal in the land food chain.
In the sea, the shark is one of the animals at the top of the food chain. It can swim faster than most other sea animals. 37
38 People are! We are not the biggest or fastest, but we are the cleverest. We could not run faster than cheetahs, so we invented cars and now we can move the fastest. We could not fight better than lions, so we invented guns. Now we can hunt the best.
People’s inventions are clever, but they can be dangerous, too. For example, people invented factories, and now they make the air and rivers dirty. 39 Dirty rivers kill fish. Then bears cannot eat the fish and die. If we kill one part of the food chain, other parts also die. Remember that we are a part of the food chain, so we are in danger, too! 40 We should and we could do something for the world!
根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整。
A. Protecting animals is protecting ourselves! B. And it can use its big teeth to eat them. C. This can make terrible changes. D. What is at the top of the world’s food chain E. It can run faster than many animals and it can hunt the best.
