A recent DNA test showed that he is male. Zoo worker Celia said To avoid mixing species, the zoo has had to keep him apart from the other macaws, which has left him lonely and bored. "He is quite sociable, although he has only learned to say 'Hello', but when he hears music, he dances" Celia saidHe has a yellow circle around his eyes that set off the rest of his blue feathers. He is more or less a cousin to Blu , he macaw that starts in the movie, Rio.That species, cyanopsitta-spixii (小蓝金刚鹦鹉),is all blue and even more endangered than the hyacinth macaw.Like the bird in the movie, scientists hope to find Coco a mate to- rebuild the species. Because international laws against animal training are now so strict, nobody is willing to lend the zoo a female. "The best solution is to find a female hyacinth macaw in our country. " Celia said, "there are at least two other known hyacinth-macaws but without DNA test, it is impossible to know if they are female, and the owners are not willing to help,because the mating process can take some time and be a little hard on females.“4.From the text we know that Coco____A.is the last known hyacinth macawB.lives apart from the other macawsC.has adapted to being left aloneD.can say "Hello" when he hears music5.Why is it difficult to find a mate for Coco?A.Because there is no known female macaw in Paraguay.B.Because the international laws are against Coco mating.C, Because the DNA test on female Coco takes time.C.Because nobody is willing to hunt for a female.6.It can be inferred from the text that______.A.Coco stars Rio in a movieB.Coco has only blue feathers on his bodyC.Coco is the most endangered macawD.rebuilding the Coco's species will take time7.Which of the following would be the best title?A.Coco, a Rare Macaw-in Asuncion ZooB.Asuncion Zoo Is Seeking a Mate for CocoC.Hyacinth Macaws Are Endangered in ParaguayD.Coco, the Only Known Male Macaw in ParaguayIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social-progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are oftenlife-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Amongthe most vocalare youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: "I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try." What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistake belief that—one's self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.8.What does this text mainly talk about?A.Competition helps to set up self-respect.B.People hold different opinions about competition.C.Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D.Failures are necessary experience in competition.9.Some people favor competition because they think it ________.A.pushes society forwardB.builds up a sense of prideC.improves social abilitiesD.develops people's relationship10.The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 refers to those who ________. A.try their best to winB.highly value competitionC.are strongly against competitionD.mostly rely on others for success11.Which viewpoint does the author agree to?A.Self-worth relys on winning.B.Competition leads to unfriendly relationship.C.Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.China is a country on the move—especially around its Lunar New Year holiday. This year, the holiday crush(客流量)promises to be even heavier than before.Government officials estimate that Chinese people will take to the air, roads and railways3.62 billion times over a 40-day period around the nation's most important holiday this year as people push their way home for family gatherings or to satisfy their new-found passion for travel.Getting tickets to all those would-be travelers is adiscountingchallenge that annually tries patience. And it is the railway system that routinely is most unable to cope. Railways are the transport of choice for low-cost long-distance travel, and that's where the ticketing system routinely falls down.Much of the criticism has, focused on the railway's online purchasing system, which has been unable to keep pace with the huge demand and also failed to stop scalpers(票贩子)from ending up with many of the hard-to-find tickets.While insisting that online sales were the fairest way to get tickets for travelers, railway officials told reporters that the public need to be patient. Efforts were being made to provideonline identity checks that would reduce the ticket scalping problems. While officials had little good news for rail passengers, they did manage to bring a few smiles to those traveling by car as the country's extremely expensive highway tolls (通行费)will be free of charge for the period of the official holiday.12.Which of the following words can replace the underlined word "discounting" in Paragraph 3?A.Promising. B.Discouraging. C.Pleasing. D.Rewarding. 13.According to the text, getting tickets ________ around the official holiday.A.is just a piece of cakeB.is more costlyC.takes great effortD.is convenient for travelers14.We can learn from the text that ________ around the New Year holiday.A.there will be 3. 62 billion people going homeB.the railway system will be facing more stressC.people's complaint .focus on the failure of online purchaseD.not railways but cars are the best choices for traveling15.Which of the following can best describe the author's attitude to the railway service? A.Objective. B.Doubtful. C.Satisfied D.Worried.二、七选五Different CulturesThe cultures of the East and the West really distinguish themselves from each other a lot. 16..The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries:China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers — the Yellow River in China and the Indus River in India. 17.When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture,another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian plain(美索不达米亚平原)一the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greek.18.Like the Chinese culture,the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America,their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So theAmerican culture doesn't distinguish itself from the European culture a lot.19.Take the language system for example. In the East,most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race differences count as well. But what's more,due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the West,the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference(干预)from the other.The differences are everywhere. 20.But different cultures make the world in the 21st century more varied. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human beings. It ought to be the motivation for our going farther.A.Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.B.One important thing is to learn about the other's culture.C.And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.D.This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.E.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.F.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.G.At the same time,some other differences add to the cultural differences.三、完形填空It was the beginning of the school year a few .years ago. l had a little boy in my class who was very quiet and 21 I wasn't sure how much he understood during the school day and I was especially 22 that he just stood by himself at 23 time and did not play.
