In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The Adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It
2、 can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all. Most people regard snake bites as fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn o
3、ut to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures. All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the Adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animal
4、s and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The Adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely, ff it hears you coming, it will norm
5、ally get out Of the way as quickly as it can, but Adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are close. The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the
6、 bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison. Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably
7、 just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.（分数：10.00）(1).Adders are most likely to be found _.（分数：2.00）A.in wilder parts of Britain and IrelandB.in Scotland nowhere elseC.on uncultivated land throughout BritainD.in shady fields in England(2).If you are w

How did i
11、t happen? By the late 1800s more and more people were visiting Stonehenge for a day out. Now a World Heritage Site owned by the Crown, it was, at the time, privately owned and neglected. But the visitors left behind rubbish and leftover food. It encouraged rats that made holes at the stones“ foundat
12、ions, weakening them. One of the upright stones had already fallen over and one had broken in two. They also chipped pieces off the stones for souvenirs and carved pictures into them, says architectural critic Jonathan Glancey. It was the same for other pre-historic remains, which were disappearing
13、fast. Threats also included farmers and landowners as the ancient stones got in the way of working on the fields and were a free source of building materials. Shocked and angry, Lubbock took up the fight. When he heard Britain“s largest ancient stone circle at Avebury in Wiltshire was up for sale in
14、 1871 he persuaded its owners to sell it to him and the stone circle was saved. “Lubbock aroused national attention for ancient monuments,“ says Glancey. “At the time places like Stonehenge were just seen as a collection of stones, ancient sites to get building materials.“ “Lubbock knew they were th
15、e roots of British identity. He did for heritage what Darwin did for natural history.“ But Lubbock couldn“t buy every threatened site. He knew laws were needed and tabled the Ancient Monuments Bill. It proposed government powers to take any pre-historic site under threat away from uncaring owners, a
16、 radical idea at the time. For eight years he tried and failed to get the bill through parliament. Finally, in 1882, it was voted into law. It had, however, been watered down; people had to willingly give their ancient monuments to the government. But what it did do was plant the idea that the state
17、 could preserve Britain“s heritage better than private owners. Pressure started to be put on the owners of sites like Stonehenge to take better care of them.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the text, Stonehenge in the late 1800s was _.（分数：1.00）A.a royal propertyB.utterly neglectedC.legally protectedD.a pub

London is full
21、 of foreign restaurants. I love trying “new dishes“. I think you can understand a lot about another culture from its food. Jo Baker : I like foreign food, but not all. I particularly do not like Indian food, although I quite enjoy a mild curry I make myself. I like most European dishes, but Spanish
22、food is quite low down on my list. However, I think you have to travel a long way to beat good old English cooking. What can be nicer than the aroma of a piece of beef roasted in the oven, surrounded by crisp roast potatoes and served with piping hot Yorkshire puddings, vegetables and gravy? From my
23、 point of view, I think foreign food is all right when you are abroad. You see, that“s just part of the enjoyment of traveling to another country. Foreign food is also fine for an odd night out to restaurant, but for every day please give me good old English food. Gabby Macadam : On the whole I enjo
24、y foreign food, but having said that I can think of dozens of foreign dishes which I simply can“t stand. You see, they have fish in some way or other and I never eat fish in any form. I have found that many foreign dishes are served with a kind of sauce. I think it is the accompanying sauce that hid
25、es all sorts of problems. I am not so sure that I would be as fond of them as I am if they were served without the sauce. Len Dangerfield : When we English people travel abroad, we always make a great fuss about studying the menu but always end up with steak. You see, when I“m abroad I always miss o
26、ur home cooking. I mean, I“m used to English food. Sometimes I do go to restaurant to taste some exotic dishes, but most of the time I still prefer to have English food. You know, it“s always difficult to get used to food in other countries. Peter Hawke : I like foreign food. I particularly like Ind
27、ian food. Well, I“m married to an Indian girl. She is a good cook. I“m lucky to have her cook for me every day. I think Indian food as well as other foreign foods is generally tastier and more spicy than English food. Traditional English dishes, like roast beef and Yorkshire pudding and fish and chi
28、ps, are quite well-known abroad. But I must say as a nation we are not particularly good at catering. As far as I“m concerned, I think we should learn to cook more interesting dishes and make our food tastier and more varied. Now match each of the people to the appropriate statement.Note: there are
29、two extra statements. StatementsA. Cooking varies from country to country even though the basic gradients may be very much the same. B. can“t stand those foreign dishes which contain fish in some way or other, and I“m not so sure that I“m fond of many foreign dishes which are served with a kind of s
30、auce. C. I think foreign food is all right when you are abroad, but for every day I still prefer home cooking. D. I always miss English food when I“m abroad. E. We are becoming more and more cosmopolitan in our eating habits. F. I love foreign food, and I think people can understand a lot about anot
