（本⼤题共10⼩题，每⼩题1分，共10分）Read the two passages and answer the questions. (10 points)Passage 1Jungle country is not friendly to man, but it is possible to survive there. You must have the right equipment and you must know a few important things about woodcraft.No one should go into the jungle without the right equipment. You need lightweight clothing, a good knife, and a compass. Fishhooks and a line, a rifle and ammunition(弹药), matches in a waterproof container are necessary too. So is a mosquito net.In the jungle you can get hopelessly lost within five minutes after leaving a known landmark. That is why you should always carry a compass. In open country, during the day, you can tell which way to go by studying the sun. At night the stars are sure guides to direction . But in most places the jungle rooftop is so thick that it is impossible to see the sun or the stars.Keep alert. Watch the ground in front of you carefully. Stop and listen now and again. Avoid haste, and rest often. You will soon become exhausted if you set a fast pace in a hot and humid place. A steady and even pace is wisest in the long run. Keep calm if you lose your way. Try to decide how long it has been since you were sure of your position. Cut marks on four sides of a tree , so that you will be able to see them from any direction. Except in an emergency, never try to travel through the jungle at night.Whenever possible, it is wise to follow streams and rivers that run in your general direction. This may give you many extra miles of travel. But in the end it will save time and energy. Nothing is more exhausting than hacking a trail cross-country through unbroken jungle. Bamboo grows along the banks of many jungle streams. Since it is hollow and extremely strong, it makes a perfect raft.Mosquitoes and some other insects will be with you all the time .The only defense against them is to wear the right kind of clothing. You should never wear shorts in the jungle. Your trousers must be lightweight and long. The cuffs(裤管⼝)should be tucked into your boot tops.Finding water that is safe to drink can be a problem. Many clear and fresh-looking streams and rivers carry deadly germs. Such water must always be boiled before you drink it . Luckily, the jungle has many kinds of plants and vines that give water. Water from almost all plants is pure enough to drink. But stay away from vines that have bitter or milky sap(树液).Many jungle plants also provide food. Before you go into the jungle, learn to recognize the varieties of plants that can be eaten. If you haven’t had a chance to do this, watch what kinds of fruit and nut the birds and monkeys choose. Such food is almost always safe for man. When you see an animal in the jungle, you can be sure that the source of food is somewhere close by. That source may mean for you a difference between going to sleep well-fed or hungry.Surviving in the jungle is a science. The jungle people have become perfect in this science, and you can too. Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the jungle. Make sure you have the right equipment. Then no part of the jungle will seem unfriendly or frightening. In fact, you will be able to “live off” it for a long time.51.For checking your position in the jungle you should rely onA. direction sense.B. known landmarks.C. the sun and stars.D. a compass.52.In moving through the jungle you shouldA. set a fairly rapid pace.B. stop and rest often.C. retrace your steps from time to time.D. study the sun whenever you can.53.The author advises against traveling at night probably becauseA. one tends to move too slowly at night.B. emergencies occur most frequently at night.C. it is difficult to check your position then.D. there is always a danger of panic in darkness.54.Following streams and rivers will help you toA. save many extra miles of travel.B. keep away from dangerous animals.C. avoid crossing unbroken stretches of jungle.D. have a constant source of drinking water.55.The best way to be sure of enough food in the jungle is toA. learn ahead of time what plants can be eaten.B. catch those animals other animals prey on.C. travel only along streams and rivers.D. watch the animals’ eating habits.。
