　　I knew they were out there somewhere, and I was determined to find them．

　　Like most tourists who visit Ranthambore National Park in India, I went with just one goal in mind：to see tigers in the wild．

　　Twice a day, all year round, 10 open-topped trucks are allowed to rumble along the park’s dirt roads for a few hours．It costs 360 rupees(about ＄8, U．S．)to buy a seat on one of the trucks．Glimpses of tigers are free．

　　Of course, nothing is guaranteed．Forty tigers wander Ranthambore’s 388 square miles．But tigers hear and smell us long before we can see them．Some tourists I met near the park were lucky enough to see a handful of tigers up close during just one trip．Other people saw none, even after going out six or more times．

　　Still, I couldn’t pass up(miss)the excursion(short journey)．It was an opportunity that might someday disappear．Tigers are among the most endangered animals on Earth．In India, where about half of the planet’s remaining 7000 wild tigers live, tigers face a number of threats, especially from a growing human population．More than a billion people live in India today, and development is rapidly expanding into what was once largely tiger territory．

　　Conservationists nonetheless(in spite of that)remain optimistic．“The tiger will not disappear,”said P．K．Sen, director of the Tiger and Wildlife Program for World Wildlife Fund-India(WWF-India)．He was kind enough to meet with me in his New Delhi office on a Sunday, the only day I spent in the city during a recent 3-week trip to India．

　　There’s no way, Sen said, that people will ever let the majestic cats die out．“The tiger has been a symbol of strength and might for thousands of years,”he said．

(1)

[　　]

meet the P．K Sen the director of the Tiger and Wildlife Program for World Wildlife Fund India

(4)

B．

the Indian Government will take some measures to protect the tigers

C．

the tiger has been a symbol of strength and might for many years

I met director P．K．Sen on a Sunday

(5)

Every tourist can be lucky enough to see a handful of tigers up close if he goes to the park several times．

　　The man who brings my milk used to knock for his money for the week I was eating breakfast on Saturday morning．Just lately he has been arriving before I get up．Workforce shortages mean that four men are sharing five rounds, so he has to start earlier．

　　Delivering milk to people’s homes is hardly good business, especially when the customer may have a choice of two or three firms serving a single road．In spite of my local difficulties, however, labor troubles are not as great as a few years ago．There are enough men prepared to make an early morning start for the sake of an open air job with a fair measure of freedom．If they did stop calling, women would find it hard work to collect all the milk they need from self service stores．Dairies(乳品業(yè))know that stopping deliveries in the United States resulted in falling sales．

　　Marketing ideas have included introducing extra lines, in addition to dairy products, which the milkmen can carry to increase business．One dairyman said, “It won’t be long before the milkmen deliver potatoes, and it seems as though variety will be limited only by the size of the trucks．

　　So the milkman is likely to remain a familiar figure, and the dairy products he sells are unlikely to change very much in this decade．Flavored(有味道的)milk is popular on the Continent．In Britain those who like it buy plain milk and add their own flavoring．Even the returnable bottle continues to be used．As long as it has a reasonable life－30 to 40 trips are usual－the cost of collection and cleaning is worthwhile．

(1)

The milkmen now start earlier on their delivery rounds than before because ________．

[　　]

A．

there is an increasing demand for milk delivery

B．

they hope to reach the customers’ homes in time

C．

they have to collect the money for the week’s milk house to house

D．

dairies are short of delivery men and the companies worry about falling sales

(2)

Why are there enough men prepared to make an early morning start?

[　　]

A．

Because they can enjoy a certain amount of freedom in the fresh air．

B．

Because they like working outdoors and breathe the air freely．

C．

Because they can enjoy a great amount of freedom outdoors．

D．

Because they like walking freely in the fresh air．

(3)

According to the passage, in this decade ________．

[　　]

A．

milkmen will disappear very soon

B．

flavored milk will become popular in Britain

C．

people will buy milk from self service stores

D．

there will be little change in the dairy business

(4)

It can be inferred from the passage that ________．

[　　]

A．

the British people seldom buy plain milk

B．

the returnable bottles are no longer used

C．

collection and cleaning of the returnable bottles cost nothing

D．

the returnable bottles won’t be thrown away until they are used dozens of times

(A)
In the course of working my ways through school , I took many jobs I would rather forget . But none of these jobs was as dreadful （可怕的）as my job in an apple plant. The work was hard ; the pay was poor ; and, most of all , the working conditions were terrible.
First of all , the job made huge demands on my strength . For ten hours a night , I took boxes that rolled down a metal track and piled them onto a truck . Each box contained twelve heavy bottles of apple juice. I once figured out that I was lifting an average of twelve tons of apple juice every night .
I would not have minded the difficulty of the work so much if the pay had not been so poor. I was paid the lowest wage of that time — two dollars an hour. Because of the low pay , I felt eager to get as much as possible . I usually worked twelve hours a night but did not take home more than $ 100 a week.
But even more than the low pay , what made me unhappy was the working conditions . During work I was limited to two ten—minute breaks and an unpaid half hour for lunch .Most of my time was spent outside loading trucks with those heavy boxes in near-zero-degree temperatures. The steel floors of the trucks were like ice, which made my feet feel like stone. And after the production line shut down at night and most people left , I had to spend two hours alone cleaning the floor.
I stayed on the job for five months , all the while hating the difficulty of the work, the poor money , and the conditions under which I worked . By the time I left , I was determined never to go back there again.

Imagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?

Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sanaa, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.

Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told the Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”

Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water truck. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water – at very high prices.

“A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.

The average person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty line of 1,000 cubic meters.

The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.

1.The purpose of the text is to _______.

A．tell us what life is like in Yemen

B．draw our attention to water shortage

D．show us ways of solving problems

A．buying water from shops

B．drinking dirty water

D．washing clothes with used water

3.Hannan described _____.

A．what her life is like

B．how beautiful Lahej is

C．how people use water fully

D．how heavy the traffic in Lahej is

4.The Yemen Government _____.

A．has found a practical solution

B．only cares about rich people

C．may try to make use of seawater

D．can do nothing about the water supply

5.We can infer from the text that _____.

A．Sanaa will run out of water in 10 years

B．Hannan is a teenager from a rich family

科目：高中英語 來源：2010年青海省高二上學(xué)期期中考試英語卷 題型：閱讀理解

The soldiers had just moved to the desert, and as they had never been in such a place before, they had a lot to learn.

As there were no trees or buildings in the desert, it was, of course, very hard to hide their trucks from enemy planes. The soldiers were, therefore, given training in camouflage. They were shown how to paint their trucks in irregular patterns with pale green, yellow, and brown paints, and then to cover them with nets to which they had tied small pieces of cloth.

The driver of the biggest truck had a lot of trouble camouflaging it. He spent several hours painting it, preparing a net and searching for some heavy rocks with which to hold the net down. When it was all finished, he went for lunch.

When he came back from his meal, he was surprised and worried to see that his camouflage was completely spoilt by the truck’s shadow, which was growing longer and longer as the afternoon advanced. He stood looking at it, not knowing what to do.

Soon an officer arrived, and he, too, saw the shadow, of course.

“Well,” he shouted to the poor driver, “What are you going to do about it? If an enemy plane comes over, the pilot will at once know that there is a truck there.”

“I know, sir,” answered the soldier.

“Well, don’t just stand there doing nothing!” said the officer.

“What shall I do, sir?” asked the poor driver.

“Get your spade and throw some sand over the shadow, of course!” answered the officer.

A．there were a lot of trees where the soldiers were stationed

B．the soldiers were staying in an area far from the enemy planes

D．The trucks were tied to the nets with small pieces of cloth.

A．his truck had cast a shadow in the sun and the enemy plane would find it.

B．the shadow of his truck was growing longer at noon

C．it was late in the afternoon, and he could not get rid of the shadow

D．his newly-painted truck was in the shadow

4. What do you think of the ending of the story?

A．It is quite reasonable that the officer ordered the soldier to cover the shadow with sand.

B．We’ll laugh at the officer’s order because it is where the humor lies.

C．Though the officer’s order sounded wise, the soldier couldn’t cover the shadow.

D．The soldier managed to cover the shadow with sand
