27、Watching some children trying to catch butterflies one hot August afternoon, I was reminded of an incident in my own childhood．When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that cured me forever of wanting to put any wild creature in a cage.

We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening at dusk the mockingbirds would come and rest in the trees and sing. There isn’t a musical instrument made by man that can produce a more beautiful sound than the song of the mockingbird.

I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way would have my own private musician.

I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, in its fright at being captured, the bird fluttered about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.

I had left the cage out on our back porch, and on the second day of the bird’s captivity my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. I was pleased to see this. Certainly the mother knew better than I how to feed her baby.

The following morning when I went to see how my captive（被俘虏的） was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! I had taken excellent care of my little bird, or so I thought.

Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time, hearing me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poison berries. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in captivity.”

Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.

B．ate the poisonous food its mother gave it

C．refused to eat anything

D．drank the poisonous water by mistake

【3】An ornithologist probably means ______.

A．a religious person   B．a kind person

C．a schoolmaster D．an expert in birds

【4】What is the most important lesson the writer learned from the incident?

A．Freedom is very valuable to all creatures.

B．All birds put in a cage won’t live long.

C．You should keep the birds from their mother.

D．Be careful about food you give to baby birds.

28、Dr. Jewel Tankard, the CEO and founder of the Millionairess Club, is going to attend the Millionairess Conference on Saturday, in Detroit. The conference inspires women to learn the rules of economics, become financially independent, and start their own businesses.

Tankard thinks a millionairess is someone who desires more. It has nothing to do with her present financial state. It has everything to do with her desiring more, wanting more and believing in more. The desire is big, but women are inspired in the end to make a big difference.

Tankard’s parents were the first African Americans to own a business in downtown Detroit. They had housekeepers, cooks, drivers, and all the best money could buy. After Tankard turned 19, however, they lost everything. After their lives greatly changed, Tankard asked her mom what her thoughts were during the process. Like many other women, her mother told her that she felt that some different financial decisions should have been made but she finally left money decisions up to her dad.

Tankard wants women to know they are able to become educated about financial matters and that they have the ability to make sound financial choices. Just because a man is a man, it doesn’t make him a better financial manager. Women should learn to trust their financial instincts and step up concerning money matters.

The Millionairess Conference is held to help ordinary women lead extraordinary lives by arming attendees with the knowledge and tools needed to take control of their finances. It works on providing financial advice to help women achieve generational wealth.

【1】Who is a millionairess in Tankard’s opinion?

A．A woman who always makes a contribution.

B．A woman who is always hungry for more.

C．A woman who has started a business.

D．A woman who has a lot of money.

【2】What might inspire Tankard to pay attention to women’s financial position?

A．Her mother’s words.

B．Her wealthy childhood.

C．The conflict between her parents.

D．The desire of African Americans.

【3】Why should women make financial decisions according to Tankard?

A．Men’s decisions aren’t always wise.

B．Their social position is relatively high.

C．The education they receive requires them to do so.

D．They have the ability to make wise financial choices.

【4】What's the purpose of the Millionairess Conference?

A．To improve the development of economy.

B．To provide women with a better education.

C．To guide women to financial independence.

D．To achieve equality between men and women.

29、The latest buzzword (流行词) in the tourism industry is “ecotourism”—responsible, environmentally sound vacationing. Ecotourism, or “green tourism,” means taking care of natural resources, protecting endangered species, and preserving and contributing to local communities.

Armed with this “checklist,” I booked a vacation in an “ecoresort.” The brochure looked appealing—a hotel right on the beach, with a large swimming pool and golf course, in acres of unspoiled rain forest.

Unfortunately, the only way to get to this resort (度假胜地) was a 12-hour flight followed by a long taxi ride. I was relieved to see the hotel at the end of the road. It was a low-rise building, made out of local stone. But as I later found out, in order to build the resort, the wealthy owner had bought up 30,000 square kilometers of unspoiled rain forest.

Sunbathing by the glorious swimming pool, enjoying the sound of sprinklers on the golf course, I suddenly realized that this was an area where water is scarce (缺乏的).

So far, not so eco-friendly. I decided to try some of the trips to nearby conservation projects, to give the resort another chance to convince me.

Although it was the breeding season for turtles, we didn’t see any. Apparently the large groups of tourists who arrive at the beach to see the turtles laying their eggs have driven the turtles away. A boat ride to a marine park was also disappointing. The noise of the boats means that the alligators (短吻鳄) are afraid to lie in the sun. The tourists, expecting to see some action, throw stones at the alligators in the water, in the hope of getting them to move.

The trip to the “authentic” local village was pleasant. The resort has turned the local homes into picturesque cottages. However, they are so charming that tourists are buying them, and the locals now live in small towns of badly built houses in the poorest areas of town.

All in all, my vacation didn’t meet any of the standards for ecotourism. But there are many projects around the world where you can have a genuinely “green” experience. My next trip is to a mountain village, as a paying guest in a local family’s home.

I will miss the swimming pool and the golf, though.

【1】What caused the writer to choose this resort?

A．The advertisement which looked attractive.

B．The resort which was a 12-hour flight away.

C．A useful checklist.

D．The writer’s love of rain forest.

【2】Why were there no turtles on the beach?

A．Because tourists throw stones at them.

B．Because tourists have caused the turtles to stay away.

C．Because the noise of the boats has made them afraid.

D．Because the tourists take away their eggs.

【3】According to your understanding, what will the writer think about “ecotourism” after this trip?

A．He thinks it as a brilliant idea.

B．He likes the swimming pool and the golf course.

C．He will still strongly support “ecotourism”.

D．He is disappointed and will have some doubts about it.

32、Students in China spend a lot of time learning English. But most of them cannot use it to communicate. Some experts think the reason lies in the testing system, because the current English testing system in China puts too much pressure on students to get high marks and pay no attention to the development of their overall(全面的) language abilities. Considering this, recently many experts are calling for reforms(改革) of the English language testing system to make it more effectively to develop actual language abilities. They say changes are necessary for the development of the national English education system.
