I've always loved pigeons(鸽子). Some years ago I managed to persuade my wife to let me buy a few and started 11 them myself. They cost a lot of money and so it spoilt(破坏) our 12 a bit, but my wife never actually stopped me so I 13 carried on. I learnt so much about them that I could 14 a good racer anywhere and I bought some beauties. My pigeons won some top races, and I even began to make a bit of 15.
You see, people are prepared to pay big prices if they get to know that your pigeons are 16 big prizes.
My wife had been changing her 17 to the pigeons over the last year or two anyway. She was quite 18 of all the prizes we'd won. Then there was a lot of traveling, which she liked. You see, someone has to take the pigeons a long way off and release them. Some of the trips were really nice. I never traveled. I used to like to wait at home and see them come in. They got the wonderful sense of 19, which could bring them back home so quickly.
However, several years ago we had a 20! One of them got some sort of flu(流感) and died; then they all went down. It was terrible; I had to burn them all. We lost a fortune, of course.

A
You can see whales(鲸) in the sea in many parts of the world. Now, whale watching is a tourist business in some places. In California there are land trips, boats, etc. to watch grey whales in their natural surroundings. It’s become big business on many coasts（海岸/海滨）.
What do the whales feel about this Well, they seem to enjoy the attention. The whales swim very close to the boat---sometimes too close ! The high streams of water that come from the whales often make the tourists’ clothes very wet; and the whale sometimes move along the boat, rising and falling in a friendly---but dangerous way. The whales even put their heads out of water for tourists to pat(轻轻地拍) them!
So the whales like humans to watch them as they lift themselves high in the air and turn over.
It’s an exciting sight---40 tons of grey whale ! But the whales are so interested in the people who come to see them that they forget their normal way of life. People are now studying the whales to see if their behavior（行为） has changed. The U.S scientists are trying to find out if the whales have stopped marriage. If they have stopped, this could be a serious situation. Perhaps, the whales are too interested in watching the tourists who are watching them.
21. Where is NOT a good place to do business of whale watching
A. California. B. Easter coast cities C. Hawaii Islands. D. Rocky Mountains.
22. How does the whale like to be watched by tourists
A. Very much. B. A little. C. Not at all. D. Not mentioned in the text.
23. Who may make the tourist wet
A. Californians B. Tourists themselves. C. U.S. scientists. D. The whales.
24. What is a serious problem that whale-watching might bring
Whales like to watch the tourists too much that they stop loving their partners which may cause the whales have less babies.
Whales swim too close to the boats which may cause the sinking of the boats.
The tourists sometimes pat the heads of the whales which may cause the whales stop swimming along the boats.
Many businessmen come to do whale-watching which may cause much more pollution along the coasts.
25. How much may a whale weigh from the description in the text
A. 40kg B. 400kg C. 4 000kg D. 40 000kg
26. What does the word “who” refer in the last sentence “who are watching them”
A. Whale-watchers. B. Whale-watching businessmen. C. Whales. D. American scientists.
B
The idiom “No pains, no gains” has been misused by some people to brush aside failures.
A mainland factory spent $200,000 to buy advanced equipment from Hong Kong, but later found part of it was produced by an inland factory and another part outdated.
This brought about $12,000 in losses, but the manager put it away, saying, “No pains, no gains.”
With the idiom as an excuse, many people take no precautions（预防措施）against failures before achieving(获得) success.
It is true that failure and setback(挫折) are not always avoidable(避免), and those who can draw lessons from defeat can usually succeed at last.
But it is certainly wrong to take the idiom “No pains, no gains” as an umbrella to excuse oneself.
China is making an effort to develop its economy. We have no time and money to waste, so steps must be taken to avoid avoidable failures.
27. According to this article, .
one can succeed only after he has suffered losses.
failure is not avoidable on one’s way to success.
one can succeed at last if he can draw lessons from defeat.
it is normal(正常的) to suffer failures before achieving success.
28. The manager .
was very sorry for the losses
thought no one should answer for(对…负责) the losses
said he would do his best to make up for the losses
was a serious man
29. Using the idiom as an excuse can .
cause many new losses
avoid new losses
make people more carefully in failure
make people completely realize the cause of losses
30. In this article, the writer tells us .
we should do our best to avoid failures though all the failures are not avoidable
it doesn’t matter much in any case if we suffer(承受) losses
we should pardon all the people who cause some losses
those who have taken precautions still should be punished if they fail in the end
