Her fossil-hunting helped change the way people thought about the world. Mary was born into a poor family in England on May 21, 1799. She lived in the seaside town of Lyme Regis, in Dorset. The family had nine children. Only Mary and her brother Joseph grew up. Mary ’s father took his children along the beach. They picked up shells and stones to sell to visitors. Mary did not go to school much. Her family was too poor. And schools did not teach children about fossils. Mary could read and write. She taught herself. She learned about rocks and how bodies are made. In 1811 when Mary and Joseph were fossil hunting, Joseph saw a bone sticking out of the rock. Mary had a hammer to chip away at the rock. Very carefully she uncovered it. She found the first complete fossil of the ichthyosaur( 鱼龙 ). Since then, Mary became crazy about fossil hunting. She liked to hunt on the beach after a storm. The wind, rain and waves made the rocks crumble. It was easy to spot fossils. Most days Mary went fossil hunting with her dog, Tray. Rich friends helped Mary by selling fossils for her. They sent her money. Scientists wrote letters and came to see her. One good friend was William Buckland, a professor at Oxford University. Mary also opened a shop to sell fossils, stones and shells. She chatted with visitors. Mary Anning died in1847. How evolution( 进化 ) works was explained by Charles Darwin not long after Mary died. Her fossils had helped scientists 5 understand how things began. 24. Why did Mary ’s father take his children along the beach? A. To enjoy life. B. To make a living. C. To look for fossils. D. To teach them about fossils. 25. What can we learn about Mary? A. Her father was a paleontologist. B. Her father educated her at home. C. She had nine brothers and sisters in all. D. She might be popular at that time. 26. Who was the first one to catch sight of the rock containing the first complete ichthyosaur fossil? A. Charles Darwin. B. Mary ’s dog. C. Joseph. D. Mary. 27. What does the underlined word crumble in the fourth paragraph means ? A. break B. shake C. float D. dive C Petrol and diesel cars may still dominate( 影响 ) our roads, but their days are numbered. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 per cent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 per cent by 2020. One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been “range anxiety ”—drivers ’ concerns about running out of juice on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. In fact, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA. Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed quite considerably over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars met with distrust, and their high price tags drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars is starting to persuade critics. Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine models a run for their money. As well as advancements on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the sea and sky. Electric boats are among the oldest electric vehicles, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric planes are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery-powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality. Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions. Were th e US to act on the study ’s findings and replace 87 perc ent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand f or petrol by 61 per cent. However, because of the production processes and the generation of 6 electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. Even so, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner. 28. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A. My Dream Car B. History of Electric Cars C. Problems with Petrol Cars D. Driving into the Future 29. The underlined word “hurdle ” in Paragraph 2 means _______ _. A. aim B. barrier C. consequence D. step 30. In the past, why did many people refuse to buy the electric cars according to the passage? A. They were not good value. B. They were very poorly made. C. They were not widely promoted D. They couldn ’t travel at a high speed. 31. What is the function of Paragraph 4? A. To introduce the history of electric vehicles. B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars. C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars D. To describe different ways electric vehicles can be used. D Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only ”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment. My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right. ” I always try to live by the “extra minute ” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only ” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding( 衬 垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table. I don ’t only avoid those “if only ” moments when it comes to safety. It ’s equally important to avoid “if only ” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had lost an opportunity to say “I love you ” or “I forgive you ”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn ’t be there. But then I thought about the fact that he ’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn ’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all. I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only ” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality( 不测的事 ). And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I ’m doing the right thing. I ’m buying myself peace of mind and that ’s 7 the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being. 32. Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute ” rul e? A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated. B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working. C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better. D. Move an object out of the way before it lets someone fall down. 33. Why did the author decide to go to her office on Good Friday? A. To keep her appointment with the eye doctor. B. To meet her father who was already an old man. C. To join in the holiday celebration of the company. D. To finish her work before the deadline. 34. What can we infer from the passage? A. It is the most important thing to avoid “if only ” in our daily life. B. The author must have a good relationship with her children. C. We should buy insurance to make our life better. D. Avoiding “if only ” can make the author comfo rtable. 35. What is the best title for the passage?[ A. The Emotional Well-being. B. The Two Saddest Words. C. The Most Useful Rule. D. The Peace of Mind. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 根据短文内容， 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 选项中有两 项为多余选项。 Hotels should be as good as their guests think they are.
