Ⅰ.阅读理解A(创新题)It’s been seven days since a 7.0-magnitude strong earthquake hit Ya’an in Sichuan Province.How the earthquake has affected one of Sichuan Province’s special residents—pandas？How are the animals coping? And do they have enough food to eat?There are more than 80 pandas living here at the Chengdu Panda Breeding Base.7 baby pandas have just left their mothers and have begun to learn how to feed for themselves.The quake was felt strongly in Chengdu.Fortunately，all of the pandas here were out on the grounds when the earthquake hit，so they were very safe.Although no deaths or injuries have been reported among the Baoxing panda population so far，they’ve been badly frightened by the earthquake.Several days has passed and the earthquake seems to have made no discernible(可辨别的)negative impact on the pandas.These two baby pandas Chengshuang and Chengdui are playing fighting with each other and climbing trees.When they climbed too high，the breeders have to rescue them from the trees.The visitors are amused by the scenes and think it’s like a fantastic acrobatics show.The quake zone is not only the home of these pandas，it’s also the source of their food.Fortunately，enough bamboo has been stored away in five bamboo storehouses for the pandas，so there are no worries with regard to food supplies.Wu Kongju，Breeder，Chengdu Panda Breeding Base，said，“When the Wenchuan earthquake happened in 2008，we were unprepared and had a shortage of bamb oo.But we’ve been able to handle this earthquake event more smoothly.There are no problems with the food supply.”Apart from the pandas’favorite Baijia Bamboo，breeders also give them bamboo shoots，which are very rich in nutrients.Wu Kongju said，“Bamboo shoots contain more protein than ordinary bamboo，and they’re also very succulent because they contain more water.”【文章大意】本文介绍了雅安地震中的熊猫状况。

He came across a shallow river he had to cross. Just when he was about to wet his feet, he saw a scorpion(蝎子)helplessly trying to come out of the river. It was almost touch ing the bank but not enough to gain hold of the ground. The sai nt saw scorpion’s struggle and decided to save it.He picked up the scorpion in his right hand with the intention to place it on the dry surface. No sooner did he do that than the sc orpion stung and rushedoff the hand, landing in the water again. It struggled to come o ut of water again. The saint’s body was in pain but his mind, cal m.Seeing that the scorpion could lose its life, the saint used left ha nd this time to lift the scorpion out of water. However, it panicke d and stung again. Once again, it sped off the hand and fell in w ater. He was left with both hands filled with pain. He was not th e one to give up either.He tried again. This time, he cupped his handstogether and lifted the scorpion in one swift movement. Before it could react, he safely dropped it on the land. The scorpion disappeared int o the pebbles that lay near the bank. He felt happy, for he succ eeded in carrying out his rescue, for saving another life. It was worth the pain he thought.At a distance, a man, surprised and shocked, had watched the whole process. He approached the saint and said, “Can I ask y ou a question please? ”“Yes, you may. ”“First of all, there was no need to save a scorpion. It does no go od to anybody. Secondly, if you must save it, you could have si mply tried once. I’m surprised that even after it stung you, you s till went on. Why? ”“Oh!That’s pretty simple, ”he replied softly rubbing his stung ha nds against each other. “This was a scorpion, a creature really l ow on the food chain, a creature whose nature is to sting(蜇), to panic, to harm. It is supposed to be weak. However, I amsupposed to be a saint, a person whose job is to love everybod y, to offer love. I am supposed to be the strong one, the one hig her up on the food chain. With my principles, my philosophy(人生观)and practice, I am supposed to save other creatures. Right? ”The man nodded.1.

Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes.Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “I'm awfully sorry，”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again.When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me.So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off.No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop. It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus.Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did.But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.Then I gave up.I decided to walk on to the next stop.16．The girl refused to ask for help because she thought ________．A．she might be recognizedB．asking for help looked sillyC．she was normal and independentD．being found blind was embarrassing17．After the girl got off the bus that evening, she________．A．began to runB．hit a person as usualC．hit a lamppost by accidentD．was caught by something18．At the request stop that evening, the girl________．A．stopped a big lorryB．stopped the wrong busC．made no attempt to stop the busD．was not noticed by other people19．What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A．Other vehicles also stopped there.B．It was unreliable for making judgments.C．More lorries than buses responded to the girl.D．It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.20．Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping________．A．to find people thereB．to find more buses thereC．to find the bus by herself thereD．to find people more helpful thereBPhil Moriarty, one of the most successful American swimming and diving coaches and a legend at Yale, died on Saturday in Connecticut, US.He was 98.Moriarty, who coached the United States diving team at the Rome Olympics in 1960, helped train some of his time's greatest swimmers, among them the Olympic gold medalists Don Schollander, Steve Clark, Mike Austin, John Nelson and Jeff Farrell.He also coached Olympic diving champions like Bob Clotworthy and David Browning.In 1960, Moriarty's divers won two gold and four silver medals in Rome.Moriarty had been the diving coach at Yale since 1939 when, in 1959, he succeeded Bob Kiphuth as the swimming team coach.“When I came to Yale，”Clark said, “I was a restless little boy depending on blazing speed and luck.I matured with Phil so that he didn't have to hold my hand.He let me grow and gave me confidence.”Philip Edward Moriarty was born on April 12, 1914, in New Haven.He graduated from high school in 1932. Though he did not have a college degree, he got a job teaching swimming to Yale students of his age.He also designed a revolutionary starting block that allowed backstrokers(仰泳运动员)to avoid pushing off a slippery wall.It was successful in the United States, but after three years the international federation refused to approve it．Moriarty promoted backstroke as healthy recreation for the young.When municipal authorities proposed closing public swimming pools to save money in 2008, he opposed the idea in a letter to The Stuart Ne w s, a Florida newspaper, saying athletics can help prevent youths from falling into gangs (帮派)and drifting into crime.“The only gangs on swimming teams are relay teams，” he wrote.“The only gun they see is the starter's pistol (发令枪), pointed upward, not at someone.”21．Paragraph 2 is mainly developed ________．A．by time B．by spaceC．by examples D．by comparison22．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________．A．the use of a starting block for swimmersB．the admittance of backstroke style into the OlympicsC．the acceptance of Moriarty as a swimming judgeD．the practice of pushing off a slippery wall23．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．There are criminal relay gangs on swimming teams.B．Moriarty trained a group of swimming champions like Browning.
