He 36 and made fun of Aesop, asking him why he wasted his time in

9、 such 37 games.Aesop responded by 38 a bow, loosening its string, and placing it on the ground. Then he said to the critical man, “Now, 39 the riddle(迷), if you can. Tell us what the unstrung bow means.”The man 40 at it for several minutes but had no idea about what 41 Aesop was trying to make. Aeso

10、p 42 ,“If you keep a bow always bent, it will break 43 ; but if you let it go loose, it will be more 44 for use when you want it.”So it is with us.

12、 the same kind of pitch. But its 51 to hit a pitcher who changes the pace of pitching. That 52 of pace gives a pitcher an advantage over the other pitchers.A change of pace also gives us a(n) 53 in life. Taking time to watch the clouds, enjoy a breeze, take a walk, read just slowdown is 54 if we are

Since moving to Buffalo shes become a big hockey fan and

17、has encouraged me to start watching it. Unfortunately its very difficult to find hockey on television here in Alabama. Since hockey games dont air very much on television Ive had to look for different ways to watch hockey games.I often see websites that claim if you go to their website you can watch

18、 television on your computer. I try out many of these websites hoping that one of the television stations is a northern station that airs hockey games. Unfortunately, most of them dont work. Either the site doesnt really give you what they advertise or their video player doesnt work properly. But fi

19、nally Ive found one websites that actually works.Free Tube is a site that you can go to and watch Television online for free. You dont have to download any kind special software or pay money or even sign up for anything. All you have to do is go to Free Tube, choose your channel and start watching.

20、The different channels to choose from are separated into different categories like news, business, entertainment, music and sports. Youre not going to find channels like NBC or ABC so you can watch the latest episode of Heroes or Greys Anatomy but it does include some popular channels like Cartoon N

21、etwork and ESPN.There is also a movie section. Each move channel airs different sorts of films like adventure, classics, comedy or horror and that channel will always air that kind of movies. The movie section also includes my favorite station called Maxx Trailers (预告片). Maxx Trailers airs nothing b

22、ut movies trailers 24 hours a day. Some of the trailers are for movies coming out and some are for movies that have already been released but already released movies dont go back farther than a couple of months.So far I havent had any problems with Free Tubes video player either. Whenever I choose a

23、 channel the video almost always works and usually loads every quickly. The only problem I have with Free Tube is that there is currently a glitch if youre using Firefox. Once you choose a channel you cant select another channel to change to, your web browser will freeze up. So if youre using Firefo

24、x the only way to switch channels is to leave the site and re-enter the site, when choosing what channel you want to go to. However, Free Tube is aware of this glitch and is working with Mozilla to get it fixed right away.If youre missing some show everyone is talking about like Greys Anatomy or Her

25、oes this isnt really a solution for that. But Free Tube is a good way to find channels that you werent aware of; there are several good stations to be found. 56. The author mainly _ in this passage.A. tells us his experience in using the Web.B. introduces Free Tube to the readersC. shows us the disa

26、dvantages of Free TubeD. shows us how to enjoy films online57. The author got interested in watching hockey games _A. because he is a sports fanB. due to his sisters influenceC. since everyone enjoys the gamesD. because he has nothing to do all day long58. Form the passage we can learn that _A. the

27、author is also very fond of moviesB. Maxx Trailers airs to-be-released moviesC. ABC is a very famous TV station in AmericaD. Firefox is the only software used to watch films online59. The underlined word “glitch” probably means _A. coverB. changeC. noteD. faultBNuclear energy has always been controv

28、ersial. But since the tsunami and nuclear disaster in Fukushima (Japan) last year the issue is back in the headlines. And the world is divided some countries are planning more nuclear plants, while others have promised to shut theirs down.After Fukushima, Germany decided to switch off all its nuclea

29、r plants by 2022. Switzerland and Italy are also phasing out nuclear power. But France and the United States remain staunch supporters of atomic energy. In fact, almost 80% of Frances electricity comes from nuclear power, the highest percentage in the world. And in the US, the Obama administration s

30、aid it “continues to support the expansion of nuclear power, despite the crisis in Japan.”Nuclear supporters claim nuclear power can help the environment. Unlike fossil fuels, nuclear power doesnt create greenhouse gases. So, pro-nuclear countries argue that nuclear power allows them to generate ene

31、rgy without contributing to climate change. Britains chief scientific adviser (John Beddington) supports this view. He recently said that the world doesnt have the luxury of ignoring nuclear energy.Nuclear power is also relatively cheap. Renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro and wind power m

32、ay be clean, but theyre expensive; and right now, they require a lot of investment. This higher cost of using “green energy” is usually passed onto the consumer. So, while many people may prefer their energy to come from a renewable source, not so many are prepared to pay higher energy bills. This i

33、s of particular concern while the world economy is in such bad shape.The main argument against nuclear energy is that it isnt safe. For a start, nuclear waste is very difficult to dispose of, and remains toxic to humans for thousands of years. And even before Fukushima, there were several high-profi

34、le nuclear disasters. The most famous is probably the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, in the Ukraine. The radiation from the meltdown spread all over Europe, affecting thousands.The nuclear energy issue is very complex. And it doesnt look like itll be resolved anytime soon.

49、tion is reducing the fragrance of plants and thus preventing bees from pollinating(授粉) themendangering one of the most essential cycles of nature, a new study suggests.The potentially hugely significant research, funded by US National Science Foundation, has found that gases mainly formed from the e

50、missions of car exhaust prevent flowers from attracting bees and other insects to pollinate them. And the scientists who have conducted the study fear that insects abilities to drive away enemies and attract mates may also be disturbed.Professor Jose Fuentes, who led the study, said, “Scent molecule

51、s(分子) produced by flowers in a less polluted environment could travel for roughly 1,000 to 1,200 meters. But today they may travel only 200 to 300 meters. This makes it increasingly difficult for bees and other insects to locate the flowers.”The researchers, who worked on the molecules of snapdragon

52、s(金鱼草),found that the molecules are volatile(易挥发的) and quickly bond with pollutants, mainly formed from vehicle emissions. This chemically changes the molecules so that they no longer smell like flowers. A harmful cycle is therefore set up where insects struggle to get enough food and the plants do

53、not get pollinated enough to multiply.Already bees, which pollinate most of the worlds crops, re in such a great decline that has never been known before in Britain and across much of the globe. At least a quarter of Americas 2.5 million honey bee colonies have been mysteriously wiped out by colony

54、collapse disorder(CCD),where hives are found suddenly deserted.The crists has now spread to Europe. Politicians insist that CCD has not yet been found in Britain, but considering the present number of bees, the agriculture minister Lord Rooker has sent the warning, “The honey bee population could be

55、 wiped out in 10 years.”Although the researchers are not certain whether this is the real cause of CCD, they say that pollution is making life more difficult for bees and other insects in many ways.68. In what way does pollution prevent flowers from attracting bees? A. By shortening the distance tra

56、veled by the scent molecules of flowers. B. By disturbing the bees ability to attract mates. C. By weakening the bees ability to fight against enemies. D. By stopping flowers from giving off fragrance.69. What harm does the decreasing number of bees do to human beings? A. It will cause humans not to

57、 get enough honey. B. It will reduce the food supplies for the world. C. Humans will have to depend on other insects to pollinate plants. D. Humans will find it hard to deal with the deserted bee hives.70. From the passage we can know that . A. Europe is affected greatly by CCD B.CCD has destroyed m

58、ost of the honey bee colonies in Europe C. no honey bees will be found all over the world in the near future D. European officials have paid much attention to CCD71. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Traffic Pollution Puts Bees in DangerB. Traffic Pollution is to Blame for CCDC. Pollu

59、tion Makes Flowers Lose Their ScentD. Pollution Causes the Decrease in FlowersEYears ago, I worked for a trucking company as a driver. It was my habit to go to company on Saturday and spend a couple hours maintaining my truck. As I was under the truck, I noticed the owners elderly father making his

60、way over to his grandsons truck next to mine. The old man asked the kid to take him fishing. But the grandson told him all about how much hed love to, but he couldnt due to the prior promises. The old man then walked away. Some minutes later, the father came out and asked his son what the old man ha

61、d wanted. After telling the story, the kid ended it with saying, “Im not taking that old man fishing. Its worse than taking a kid.” That just broke my heart. I quit working immediately and headed home. I loaded up something like a lawn chair, a pole , and headed back to the yard. On the way I bought

62、 a big bobber(浮子) and some worms. When I got there, I knocked on the door and invited him fishing. If I was like taking a kid fishing, I had determined to take him where Id take a kid. When we got there I put him in the lawn chair beside the water, baited and cast the line, and handed him the pole. Soon that big old bobber started to dance; he set the hook, drew the fish in skillfully. And handed the pole to me. I unhooked the fish, re-baited and cast, and again handed it to him. This went on for about half an hour at which point he informed me he was tired and needed to go h
