阅读理解。     We have met the enemy and he is ours. We bought him at a pet shop. When monkey-pox, a disease usually
found in the African rain forest, suddenly turns up in children in the American Midwest, it"s hard not to wonder of the disease that comes from foreign animals is homing in on human beings." Most of the infections (感染)
we think of as human infections started in other animals" says Stephen Morse director of the Center for Public
Health Preparedness at Columbia University.
     It"s not just that we"re going to where the animals are ; we"re also bringing them closer to us. Popular
foreign pets have brought a whole new disease to this country. A strange illness killed Isaksen"s pets and she
now thinks that keeping foreign pets is a bad idea."I don"t think it"s fair to have them as pets when we have
such a limited knowledge of them" says Isaksen.
     " Laws allowing these animals to be brought in from deep forest areas without stricter control need
changing," says Peter Schantz. Monkey-pox may be the wake-up call. Researchers believe infected animals
may infect their owners. We know very little about these new diseases. A new bug (病毒) may be kind at first. But it may de- velop into something harmful (有害的). Monkey-pox doesn"t look a major infectious disease.
But it is not impossible to pass the disease from person to person. 1. We learn from Paragraph 1 that the pet sold at the shop may _____. A. come from Columbia
B. prevent us from being infected
C. enjoy being with children
D. suffer from monkey-pox 2. Why did Isaksen advise people not to have foreign pets? A. They attack human beings.
B. We need to study native animals.
C. They can"t live out of the rain forest.
D. We do not know much about them yet. 3. What does the phrase" the wake-up call" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. A new disease.
B. A clear warning.
C. A dangerous animal.
D. A morning call. 4. The text suggests that in the future we______. A. may have to fight against more new diseases
B. may easily get infected by diseases from dogs
C. should not be allowed to have pets
D. should stop buying pets from Africa

阅读理解。     Valuing water
     Human beings use a little less than half the water available worldwide. Yet shortages and droughts (干旱)
are causing starvation and poverty in some areas, and industrial and agricultural by-products are polluting water
supplies. Since the world"s population is expected to double in the next 51 years, many experts think we are on
the edge of a widespread water crisis.
     But that doesn"t have to be the result. Water shortages do not have to trouble the world-if we start valuing
water more than we have in the past. Just as we began to value petrol more after the 1970s oil crisis, today we must start looking at water from a fresh economic view. We can no longer afford to consider water a nearly
free resource of which we can use as much as we like in any way we want.
     Instead, for all uses except the demand of the poor, governments should price water to reflect its real value. This means charging a fee for the water itself as well as for the supply costs.
     Governments should also protect this source by providing water in more economically and environmentally
sound ways. For example, often the cheapest way to provide irrigation (灌溉) water in the dry places is through small-scale projects, such as gathering rainfall in depressions(凹地) and pumping it to nearby cropland.
     No matter what steps governments take to provide water more efficiently, they must change their ways to
use water. Rather than control hundreds or even thousands of local, regional agencies that watch water use,
countries should set up central authorities to manage water policy. 1. What is the real cause of the potential water crisis? A. Only half of the world"s water can be used.
B. The world population is increasing faster and faster.
C. Half of the world"s resources have been seriously polluted.
D. Human beings have not placed sufficient value on water resources. 2. We can conclude from the passage that the water problem ______. A. is already serious in certain parts of the world
B. has been exaggerated by some experts in the field
C. poses a challenge to the technology of building reservoirs
D. is underestimated by government organizations at different levels 3. According to the author, the water price should ______. A. be reduced to the minimum
B. stimulate domestic demand
C. equal its real value
D. take into account the occurrences of droughts.

阅读理解。     There is an English saying, "Laughter is the best medicine." Until recently, few people took the saying
seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.
They have found that laughter really can improve people"s health.
    Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while
doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar
effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people
breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter
exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
     Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one
experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The
group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme.
The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain
which diminishes both stress and pain.
     As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they
help to improve their patients"condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their
patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to
those caused by laughter.1. Doctors have proved the following except that ________. A. smiling does good to health
B. laughter can be tolerated
C. there is a way to reduce pain
D. laughter can work the muscles in the feet 2. The main idea of the passage is ________. A. laughter and physical exercises have similar effects on the human body
B. smile can produce the same effects as laughter
C. pain can be reduced by laughter
D. laughter is best medicine 3. The underlined word"diminish" is similar to________.

A. test
B. stop
C. reduce
D. increase

4. Doctors hold laughter clinics _____. A. to give better condition to their patients
B. in order to improve patients" health
C. to make patients smile
D. to prove smile and laughter have the same effect

阅读理解。     As everybody knows, tourism plays an important part in the development of a country"s economy, the life

areas. They want to make good use of natural resources but not use them up. For example, they research the
