(时间:100分钟,满分:120分)
Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
A
Millions of years ago there were many types of dinosaurs on Earth.Most dinosaurs were planteaters.The Apatosaurus,for example,had a long thin neck so that it could eat leaves from trees.Other dinosaurs were meateaters.The Tyrannosaurus Rex killed smaller dinosaurs for food.
Dinosaurs were real animals that once lived on the Earth,but they died out about 65 million years ago.
The disappearance of the dinosaurs is in some way a great mystery.Some scientists think that the climate changed suddenly.Fossils(化石)of trees tell us that the temperature dropped a lot and that the level of the sea dropped as well.This means that it got suddenly much colder.Perhaps the dinosaurs were too slow to change with the climate.
A new idea is that a meteor(流星)crashed into the Earth.Scientists discovered a place in Mexico where they think the meteor crashed.They think that there was a lot of dust from the meteor.The dust landed on the plants.Also the dust blocked(阻挡)the sun's light for as long as five years.Many animals,including dinosaurs,were planteaters,and perhaps the dust killed them.This means there was nothing left for meateating dinosaurs to eat,and so they died out.But,as many animals from that time didn't die,we are not 100% sure what really happened.

One of the most detailed(详细的)descriptions of a UFO was given by nineyearold Gaynor Sunderland in July 1976.Gaynor lived in Oakenholt,a village in North Wales.On her way home from school,she saw a silver(银色的)object shaped like a saucer(茶碟)in a field not far from her home.
The strange craft(飞行器)was about 30 feet long and 9 feet high.It had yellow windows along the side and on the top there was a light flashing in a kind of box.Although Gaynor was very frightened,she did not run away.Instead,she lay quietly in the long grass and watched the door of the strange craft open.She saw two people wearing silver suits come out of the craft.They were carrying some kind of equipment(设备)which they used to examine the ground.They were short and had large pink eyes,Gaynor reported.
After about half an hour,the two people went back into the craft.At once there was a loud noise and the UFO took off.
Although Gaynor told her mother what she had seen,her family decided to keep quiet about it.They did not want people to laugh at their daughter.However,18 months later,Gaynor told her story to UFO experts.They hypnotized(对某人施催眠术)Gaynor so that they could be sure she was telling the truth.

Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbors.For more than 30 years,they had been getting along very well.
Then their good relationship broke.It began with a small thing,then bitter words,and then weeks of silence.One morning,Farmer John woke up to find a stream between the two farms.“It must be Bob.” John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John's door.He opened it to find a carpenter (木匠)standing at the doorway.
“I'm looking for a few days' work.” the carpenter said.
“I do have a job for you,” John said.“Look across the stream at that farm.That's my neighbor Bob's.He dug a stream between the two farms.I want you to build a fence—an 8foot fence.I don't want to see his place or his face any more.I don't have such a neighbor!”
The carpenter said,“I think I know what to do,sir,and I'll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
Farmer John helped the carpenter get the materials ready and then he was off for the day.
About sunset when the farmer returned,the carpenter had just finished his job.The farmer's eyes opened wide.There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbor,Bob,was coming across,with his hand outstretched(伸开的).“Hi,John!You're_quite_a_fellow_to_build_this_bridge!”
Then they met in the middle,taking each other's hands.“I'm terribly sorry for what I have said and done.We should be good to each other.” said Farmer Bob.
Then they turned to see the carpenter,who was ready to go.“No,wait! Stay a few days.I have a lot of other jobs for you.” said Farmer John.“I'd love to stay,” the carpenter said,“but I have more bridges to build.”

Do you enjoy reading? Do you read newspapers or magazines? Chances are,if you do any of these activities,your preschool child is on his way to becoming a reader.
The process of learning to read is complex,and one of the most important things to know is that parents can help their children learn to read.As children have conversations with adults,they hear both new and familiar words and their vocabulary grows.
There are many opportunities for adults and children to talk together,such as when riding in the car or in a bus,doing housework like fixing dinner,or bathing and getting ready for bed.A major part of conversation is listening.When children talk,adults listen and respond.Then children listen and respond,and so the flow of conversation happens.
Have you watched your preschool child pretend to read to his younger sisters or brothers? Have you read his favorite story over and over?These experiences tell children that reading is fun.And when things are fun and they are repeated,your child will see letters.He begins to connect them to familiar words,especially the letters that make up his name.A natural next step for him to take is to write the letters.
When children see parents make a grocery list,they want to use a pencil and paper to make their own list.To encourage these beginning writing activities,have pencils,markers,crayons and scrap paper within your children's reach.
The more children get connected with talking,listening,reading and writing,the easier it is for them to become active readers.While you as a parent have a big influence on these early behaviors,it is important to remember that opportunities for literacy experiences happen when you and your child share in the basic routines(日常生活)of everyday life.

Pyramids under the Sea
Japanese scientists discovered a pyramid under the sea in 2007,which was said to date back to more than 5,000 years ago.
Some scientists think it might have formed naturally,but others don't agree.They think it might be ancient human remains,because signs of human activities have been found there.However,now no clear evidence can prove which argument about it is true.
Why does it exist under the sea? Most scientists believe it was an earthquake that caused it to sink into the sea.Scientists throughout the world are still trying to find more information about it.
