But after forty days without a fish,the boy^ parents had told him that the old man was now salao,which is the worst form of unlucky,and the boy had gone with another boat which caught three good fish the first week.

If a snake bites you, take a photo with your mobile phone! It saves your life. This is the surprising advice of a British cook. One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. “ I tried to pick it up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door.” Jackson said. Anyway, Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong because they didn't know what kind of snake it was.
Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day. “ So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone. Take its photo first and then call the hospital. Show the photo to the doctors,” suggests Mr. Jackson. “ Oh, and if the snake doesn't smile for its photo, don't worry!”
( )36. When the snake bit Mr. Jackson, it was _________________.
A. hiding in a box of bananas B. climbing out of a box of bananas
C. lying under a dish D. climbing into the fridge..
( )37. Mr. Jackson threw the snake away probably because ______________.
A. he was surprised B. he wanted to get a better photo
C. his chest began to hurt D. the fridge door was open
( )38. Mr. Jackson closed the fridge door so that _______________.
A. he could take a photo B. the snake couldn't go back to the zoo
C. the snake became cool D. he was safe from the snake
( )39. The doctors gave Mr. Jackson the right medicine when______________ .
A. London Zoo told them what kind of snake it was B. the snake bit him
C. Mr. Jackson sent the photo to the hospital D. he left hospital the next day
( )40.The text tells us if we are in danger and have a phone with us, it will help us to do
______ things.
A. one B. two C. three D. four
C
Like all the planets in our solar system, Earth and Mars go around the sun. But Earth is closer to the sun, and therefore revolves along its orbit(轨道) more quickly. Earth makes two trips around the sun in about the same amount of time that Mars takes to make one trip. So sometimes the two planets are on opposite sides of the sun, very far apart, and other times, Earth catches up with its neighbor and passes relatively close to it.
Since Mars and the sun appear on opposite sides of the sky, we say that Mars is in 'opposition'. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months. Every 15 or 17 years, opposition occurs within a few weeks of Mars' perihelion(近日点).
An opposition can occur anywhere along Mars' orbit. When it happens while the red planet is closest to the sun (called 'perihelic opposition'), Mars is particularly close to Earth If Earth and Mars both had perfectly stable orbits, then each perihelic opposition would bring the two planets as close as they could be. So, with all these added factors, some bring us closer together than others. The 2003 opposition was the closest approach in almost 60,000 years!
Mars' orbit is more elliptical (椭圆的) than Earth's, so the difference between perihelion and aphelion(远日点) is greater. Over the past centuries, Mars' orbit has been getting more and more elongated, carrying the planet even nearer to the sun at perihelion and even farther away at aphelion. So future perihelic oppositions will bring Earth and Mars even closer. Our 2003 record will stand until August 28, 2287!
( )41. Mars _______.
A. isn't one of the planets in our solar system B. is farther from the sun than the earth
C. never meets Earth close D. and Earth have the same orbit around the sun
( )42. The time Mars takes to go around the sun is _______ that Earth needs.
A. as long as B. not so long as C. as about two times long as D. as about three times long as
( )43. Which of the following statements is not right?
A When Mars is in 60pposition', Mars and the sun are opposite in the sky.
B. Mars oppositions happen about every 15 or 17 years.
C. An opposition can occur everywhere along Mars' orbit.
D. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months.
( )44. In the sentence '…Mars' orbit has been getting more and more elongated…', 'elongated' means_______.
A. 伸长的 B. 拉长 C．延长 D.（被拉得）细长的
( )45. From the passage, we can know the next perihelic opposition _______.
A. is the closest approach in almost 60,000 years D. is in 2003
C. will bring Earth and Mars even farther D. will happen on August 28, 2287

If a snake bites you, take a photo with your mobile phone! It saves your life. This is the surprising advice of a British cook. One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. “ I tried to pick it up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door.” Jackson said. Anyway, Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong because they didn't know what kind of snake it was.
Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day. “ So my advice is this: If a snake bites you, pick up your phone. Take its photo first and then call the hospital. Show the photo to the doctors,” suggests Mr. Jackson. “ Oh, and if the snake doesn't smile for its photo, don't worry!”

Like all the planets in our solar system, Earth and Mars go around the sun. But Earth is closer to the sun, and therefore revolves along its orbit(轨道) more quickly. Earth makes two trips around the sun in about the same amount of time that Mars takes to make one trip. So sometimes the two planets are on opposite sides of the sun, very far apart, and other times, Earth catches up with its neighbor and passes relatively close to it.
Since Mars and the sun appear on opposite sides of the sky, we say that Mars is in 'opposition'. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months. Every 15 or 17 years, opposition occurs within a few weeks of Mars' perihelion(近日点).
An opposition can occur anywhere along Mars' orbit. When it happens while the red planet is closest to the sun (called 'perihelic opposition'), Mars is particularly close to Earth If Earth and Mars both had perfectly stable orbits, then each perihelic opposition would bring the two planets as close as they could be. So, with all these added factors, some bring us closer together than others. The 2003 opposition was the closest approach in almost 60,000 years!
Mars' orbit is more elliptical (椭圆的) than Earth's, so the difference between perihelion and aphelion(远日点) is greater. Over the past centuries, Mars' orbit has been getting more and more elongated, carrying the planet even nearer to the sun at perihelion and even farther away at aphelion. So future perihelic oppositions will bring Earth and Mars even closer. Our 2003 record will stand until August 28, 2287!
( )41. Mars _______.
A. isn't one of the planets in our solar system B. is farther from the sun than the earth
C. never meets Earth close D. and Earth have the same orbit around the sun
( )42. The time Mars takes to go around the sun is _______ that Earth needs.
A. as long as B. not so long as C. as about two times long as D. as about three times long as
( )43. Which of the following statements is not right?
A When Mars is in 60pposition', Mars and the sun are opposite in the sky.
B. Mars oppositions happen about every 15 or 17 years.
C. An opposition can occur everywhere along Mars' orbit.
D. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months.
( )44. In the sentence '…Mars' orbit has been getting more and more elongated…', 'elongated' means_______.
A. 伸长的 B. 拉长 C．延长 D.（被拉得）细长的
( )45. From the passage, we can know the next perihelic opposition _______.
A. is the closest approach in almost 60,000 years D. is in 2003
C. will bring Earth and Mars even farther D. will happen on August 28, 2287
