The time was 4:30 a.m. Looking out into the

22、darkness, Annie remembered learning in school that most owls are active at night, when they hunt for food.

25、er gloves were in her pocket.Suddenly Annies father stooped and gestured for her to be still. Obeying, Annie did not take another step. She thought she heard a low crying up head. “Thats certainly a screech owl,” her father whispered. “Lets get a look at it.” After looking more closely, Annie could

26、see that it was a small owl. Sensing danger, the owl narrowed its eyes and pulled its feathers tightly against its body. Annie carefully wrote down in her notebook that they had seen a screech owl.Walking a little farther, they came to a tall oak tree. “This looks like a perfect spot to attract owls

27、,” Dad said. “Im going to play a recording of common call of the barred owl. Maybe we can get one to answer. Annie could hardly believe her ear. The recorded all sounded as if the bird were asking, “who cooks for you?” Moments later Annie thought she heard a return call in distance. She held her bre

28、ath and waited. Suddenly a huge bird landed very quietly on a branch above them.Annie had long forgotten how cold it was.

39、e coming eventsB. encourage people to work as volunteersC. invite people to take part in the competitionD. tell people about some famous organizationCIndoor PlantsAs with any house guests, indoor plants require a certain amount of basic, regular attention if they are going to feel at home. The first

40、 consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the condition in which they are going to be housed. A general rule for most plans being brought indoors for the first time is to ensure that they have reasonable temperature of not less than 60 degrees Fahren

41、heit, a position out of cold air, safe from pets and not exposed to strong sunlight. Plants love company. When plants are growing together, they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions. A group of plants will also present a more pleasing pi

42、cture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement. There is no secret to this. Just rely on your natural feeling for harmony. Watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood, but, again, if you follow a few simple rules, your plants should

43、do well. Cold Slightly warm water is therefore the answer. It is usually better to pour water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom. Avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervals- it is much better to wet the soil right through

44、 the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering.The majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from March until October, and during this time, the established ones will benefit from regular feeding. This may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertil

45、izer(肥料) at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at a standard strength. It is important, however, to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive, when the soil in the pot is dry, or too soon after the plants has been potted up.63. In Paragraph 2, the author

46、 mainly tells us to_. A. but plants that help clean indoor air B. create a new environment with plants C. put plants on the sunny side of the room D. make sure of suitable conditions for plants64. Whats the benefit of plants growing together? A. It provides owners good company. B. It helps the air a

47、round them slightly wet. C. It makes it convenient to look after them. D. It allows owners to draw a pleasant picture.65. While watering the plants, what should we remember to do? A. Use water that is a little warm. B. Pour the water into the pot holder. C. Give small amount of water at one time. D.

48、 Consider further watering in dry weather.66. What is the best time to feed the plants? A. When the soil is dry. B. When their growth is active. C. When the temperature is high. D. When they have just been planted.DAs people have accurately observed, smiles are absent from early photographs. In 1852

49、, for instance, a girl sat for her Daguerrotype, her head slightly turned, giving the camera an unsmiling look. She is preserved forever as a very serious girl indeed. Charles Darwin, a loving and playful parent, looks frozen in photographs. Why did our ancestors, from unknown sitters for family por

50、traits(肖像画) to the great and famous, because so sad in front of the camera?The severity is everywhere in Victorian photographs. However, you dont have to look very long at these unsmiling old photos to see how incomplete the seemingly obvious answer is-that they are freezing their faces in order to

51、keep still for the long exposure times. In Julia Margaret Camerons Portrait of Tennyson, the poet dreams, his face a shadowed mask of genius. This is not simply a technique. Its an emotional choice.People in the past did not go around in a continual state of sorrow. In fact, the Victorians had a sen

52、se of humor even about the darkest aspects of their society. Laughter was not just common in the past but accepted by society far more than it is today, from medieval carnivals(中世纪狂欢节) to Georgian print shops, where people gathered to look at the latest funnies. Far from preventing festivals and fun

53、, the Victorians, who invented photography, also created Christmas as a celebration as it is today. So the severity of people in the 19th-century photographs cannot be the evidence of generalized sadness. This was not a society in permanent desperation. Instead, the true answer has to do with attitu

54、des to portraiture itself.People who sat for early photographs understood it as a significant moment. Sitting for the camera was cheaper, quicker and meant that people who never had a chance to be painted could now be photographed; but people seemed to have taken it seriously in the same way they wo

55、uld be a painted portrait. Like a portrait painting, it was intended as a timeless record of a person.To me those unsmiling people probably had as much fun as we do, if not more. But they felt no need to prove it with pictures. Instead, when whey sat for a photograph, they thought about time, death

56、and memory. Perhaps we should stop smiling sometimes, too.67. What do we know about the people in Victorian times? A. They laid importance on religious events. B. They were skillful at portrait painting. C. They valued their family life. D. They enjoyed themselves.68. The author mentions Portrait of

57、 Tennyson in Paragraph 2 to_. A. prove a theory B. support his opinion C. introduce a painting D. describe a technique69. The author thinks early people look frozen in old photos because_. A. they lived in a traditional society B. they had to stay still for a long time C. they regarded photography i

58、mportant D. they held negative views about painting70. What is the authors attitude towards people not smiling in old photos? A. Skeptical. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Positive. 第二节（共5小题，每题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后旳七个选项中选出能填入空白处旳最佳选项，选项中有两项为多出选项。 According to statistics published by the University of Scr

59、anton, about 45 percent of Americans usually make New Years resolutions-and the most popular resolution is losing weight. Of those who make resolutions, a mere 8 percent achieve them. _71_ Are we just setting ourselves up for failure? Learn how to make realistic resolutions and how to overcome the r

60、oadblocks along the way. Setting a resolution to lose pounds isnt a goal thats achievable now. It may be a good long-term goal. _72_ Registered dietitian Elisa Zied says” to be real when you make a resolution. Its okay to shoot for the stars like making a resolution, but why not set a smaller goal a

61、nd train smart?” The same concept applies to weight loss. _73_ These goals should help develop healthy habits that will finally help achieve your long-term resolution.Notice that these goals are simple and achievable. “Instead of going from zero to 60, from never going to the gym to going four to five times a week, why not start with three days a week, get consistent and build from there,” Zied says. Set yourself up for success and map out your course by making appointments with yourself to
