19．Recently I came in contact with the true meaning of love． That would have been，Kane，a boy． Kane was the two-year-old son of Jolene，my new neighbor．
    At a glance Kane was a sight． He'd been born with hard sticks for legs． And on that morning I witnessed the effect that Kane's physical shortcomings had on his family． But I also witnessed much more than that．
    I saw an extraordinary family that embraced this special child． A family that wouldn't allow Kane to know he was different． Jolene had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to get around． Using his hands to move about，Kane moved the cart to"go to"any place just as everyone else was able to do． Kane worked that little cart like a master． Kane was a vital focus of the entire family． He was more than just a member of the family； he was the soul． This child was the driver，the motivator，and the founder of much of the interaction．
    Much later in my life，I came to realize that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren't getting what love was all about． Even with my limited capacity for understanding at the time that Kane was a highly developed spirit with great wisdom．
Kane demanded attention，but not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings． In his mind，he had no challenges or shortcomings． The truth is that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer．
    Kane was and still is a lot of warm and powerful energy sent to us all，so we might learn that love surpasses all things． Kane，a fragile yet lovely baby，was here to teach us all an important lesson． And at the age of two he did just that．
56． How did the author think of Kane's family members？D
    A． They were strange because they locked Kane at home．
    B． It was respectable for them to start their own business．
    C． It was ridiculous for them to make a cart for Kane．
    D． They were greatly brave to face all the difficulties．
57． How did Kane"get to"everywhere he wanted to go？A
    A． By moving his cart with his own hands．
    B． By asking his father to lead him ahead with a stick．
    C． By asking his grandparents to push hin everywhere．
    D． His parents specially employed a babysitter for him．
58． According to the author，God made Kane with disability to helpC
    A． his parents get to know their responsibility
    B． his family members know the importance of union
    C． people especially the healthy realize what love really means
    D． people especially the disabled realize their inner power
59． Kane needed attention because he wanted to showD．
    A． he can challenge his difficulty in moving
    B． he had challenges or shortcomings in his life
    C． he himself needed to be looked after by others
    D． he had the power to prove he was capable too
60． What can we learn from Kane's story？B
    A． Love me，love my dog．                  B． Love is above all things．
    C． Many hands make light work．            D． Pure gold fears no fire．

10．Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly，flies like a fat chicken，eats green leaves，has the stomach of a cow and has claws （爪） on its wings when young．They build their homes about 4.6m above the river，an important feature （特征） for the safety of the young．It is called the hoatzin．
  In appearance，the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside．The head is small，with a large set of feathers on the top，bright red eyes，and blue skin．Its nearest relatives are the common birds，cuckoos．Its most striking feature，though，is only found in the young．
  Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip．Using these four claws，together with the beak （喙），they can climb about in the bushes，looking very much like primitive birds must have done．When the young hoatzins have learned to fly，they lose their claws．
  During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20to 30birds，but in April，when the rainy season begins，they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes．

63．What is the text mainly about？D
A．Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons．
B．The relatives and enemies of hoatzins．
C．Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon．
D．The appearance and living habits of hoatzins．
64．Young hoatzins are different from their parents in thatB．
A．they look like young cuckoos
B．they have claws on the wings
C．they eat a lot like a cow
D．they live on river banks
65．What can we infer about primitive birds from the text？A
A．They had claws to help them climb．
B．They could fly long distances．
C．They had four wings like hoatzins．
D．They had a head with long feathers on the top．
66．Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the rainy season comes？D
A．To find more food．
B．To protect themselves better．
C．To keep themselves warm．
D．To produce their young．

7．About l，500 years ago the Japanese imported many aspects of Chinese culture：the writing system，political institutions，and perhaps the most important，Buddhism． Buddhist priests were expected to eat only vegetables，and tofu，made from the soybean，was a very important food in their diet．When Buddhism was introduced from China，tofu was also brought to Japan．
Tofu developed in different ways in China and Japan．While the Chinese often changed the taste of tofu by mixing it with strongly-flavored vegetables or meat，the Japanese preferred to eat it using only a simple sauce． Even now，traditional Japanese cooking preserves the original delicacy of tofu，though the way it is served may change from season to season． In summer，for example，it is simply served cold，while in winter it is often eaten as part of a hot dish．
The soybean was introduced to the West in the 18th century，but little interest was taken in it． Only scientists recognized its high food value．During the Second World War，when meat was in short supply，the US government encouraged the American people to eat soybean products．However，they never became very popular and，after the war，interest in them dropped off as the supply of meat became plentiful again．
In recent years，people in the West have become increasingly aware of the dangers of eating too much animal fat，and as a result，they have turned more and more to soybean products． This is mainly because the soybean provides almost the same food value as meat，and in addition it is a lot more healthful． Much of the margarine （人造黃油），salad oil and cooking oil in daily use is now produced from soybean oil．Tofu，a representative soybean product and originally one of the main foods in the diet of Chinese priests，is considered to be one of the healthiest foods available to man．

63．Tofu came to Japan together with Buddhism because _B．
A．Buddhist priests ate tofu rather than vegetables
B．it was a very important food in the diet of Buddhist priests
C． the religion came to Japan together with political institutions
D．the religion was the most important aspect of Chinese culture
64．How are Japanese tofu dishes different from Chinese tofu dishes？A
A．They are preserved in the original taste．
B．They are served the same way throughout the year，
C．They have a better taste than Chinese tofu dishes．
D．They have a greater variety than Chinese tofu dishes．
65．The Western people become interested in tofu and other soybean products becauseD．
A． they have become tired of eating meat
B．meat has become too expensive to buy
C．these products are more readily available
D． eating too much animal fat is considered unhealthy．

14．The death of languages is not a new phenomenon．Languages usually have a relatively short life span as well as a very high death rate．Only a few，including Egyptian，Chinese，Greek，Latin，have lasted more than 2，000 years．
What is new，however，is the speed at which they are dying out．Europe's colonial conquests caused a sharp decline in linguistic diversity，eliminating at least 15 percent of all languages spoken at the time．Over the last 300 years，Europe has lost a dozen，and Australia has only 20 left of the 250 spoken at the end of the 18th century．
The rise of nation-states has also been decisive in selecting and consolidating national languages and sidelining others．By making great efforts to establish an official language in education，the media and the civil service，national governments have deliberately tried to eliminate minority languages．
This process of linguistic standardization has been boosted by industrialization and scientific progress，which have imposed new methods of communication that are swift，straightforward and practical．Language diversity came to be seen as an obstacle to trade and the spread of knowledge．Monolingualism became an ideal．
More recently，the internationalization of financial markets，the spread of information by electronic media and other aspects of globalization have intensified the threat to"small"languages．A language not on the Internet is a language that"no longer exists"in the modern world．It is out of the game．
The serious effects of the death of languages are evident．First of all，it is possible that if we all ended up speaking the same language，our brains would lose some of their natural capacity for linguistic inventiveness．We would never be able to figure out the origins of human language or resolve the mystery of"the first language"．As each language dies，a chapter of human history closes．
Multilingualism is the most accurate reflection of multiculturalism．The destruction of the first will inevitably lead to the loss of the second．Imposing a language without any links to a people's culture and way of life stifles the expression of their collective genius．A language is not only used for the main instrument of human communication．It also expresses the world vision of those who speak it，their imagination and their ways of using knowledge．To safeguard languages is an urgent matter．
 
74．Which of the following does not contribute to the death of languages？B
A．Colonial conquests of Europe
B．The boom of human population．
C．Advances in science and industrialization
D．The rise of nation-states．
75．What does the underlined word"stifles"in Paragraph 7 probably mean？D
A．boosts      B．fuels         C．imposes      D．kills
76．The serious effects of the death of languages include all except thatB
A．people would fail to understand how languages originated．
B．language diversity would become an obstacle to globalization．
C．monolingualism would lead to the loss of multiculturalism．
D．human brains would become less creative linguistically．
77．What is the author's purpose of writing this passage？C
A．To explain the reasons why languages are dying out．
B．To warn people of the negative aspects of globalization．
C．To call people's attention to the urgency of language preservation．
D．To argue how important it is for people to speak more languages．
