8、er by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 Wild and farm birds often get a flu virus. Yet they usually are able to carry the virus without getting sick.In 1997 six people in Hong Kong died of a different kind of bird flu virus. It is called the h-five-n-one virus. The Hong Kong
9、 government quickly ordered the killing of all farm birds there. That stopped the spread of h-five-n-one to people in Hong Kong.Yet the virus bad already spread to other parts of Asia. It was found in 16 countries between 2003 and 2006.The h-five-n-one virus first appeared in Africa. This raised man
10、y concerns about the spread of the disease. Scientists do not know exactly how bird flu came to Africa. At first, they thought wild birds were to blame. Now, officials with the U. N. Food and Agriculture Organization believe the main cause is trade in farm birds.The bird flu virus is found in the wa
11、ste and liquids of infected birds. The virus spreads when healthy birds or people touch sick birds or nay infected (被感染了的) part of sick birds. Right now, the virus is not spreading among person to person. But the virus could change and start spreading among people. Health officials believe that it i
12、s even more possible now that bird flu has spread in Africa, and that is why international organizations are working so hard to stop its spread.The best way to stop the spread of bird flu is to kill all the chickens in an area where bird flu has been discovered. More than 145 000 chickens have been
13、killed in Nigeria since bird fin was first found one year ago.21 The passage focuses on _.（A）wild and farm birds（B） a fin virus（C） bird flu（D）infected birds 22 H-live-n-one virus in the passage means _.（A）farm birds（B） infected farm animals（C） people died in Hong Kong（D）a different kind of bird flu
14、virus 23 Some officials believe bird flu spread to Africa mainly due to _.（A）the trade of farm birds（B） the waste and liquids of infected birds（C） the fact that sortie people touched sick birds or any infected part of sick birds（D）the virus changed and started spreading in some new forms 24 The best
15、 solution to the problem of the spread of bird flu is _.（A）to kill all the birds in an area where bird flu has been discovered（B） to kill all the chickens（C） to kill all the birds（D）to kill all the chickens when bird flu has been discovered 24 When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very of
16、ten. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted.
17、 Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (远处的) things clearly.People who are nearsighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arms length. If they want to do much reading, they m
18、ust get glasses, too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some peoples eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, howev
19、er, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object outof the other eye. You will f
20、ind the objects relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.25 We should take good care of our eyes
21、 _.（A）only when we cannot see perfectly（B） only when we can see well（C） even if we can see well（D）only when we realize how important our eyes are 26 When things far away seem indistinct, one is probably _.（A）near-sighted（B） far-sighted（C） astigmatic（D）suffering front cataracts 27 Having two eyes, in
22、stead of one, is particularly useful for _.（A）seeing at night（B） seeing objects far away（C） looking over a wide area（D）judging distances 28 People who suffer from astigmatism（A）have a curable disease in their eyes（B） have eyes that are not exactly the right shape（C） have a difficulty that can be cor
23、rected by an operation（D）have an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses 28 Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something.His purpose is settled and decided. He knows what he wants and he just finds it and bu
24、ys it, but cares little about the price. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it, the salesman quickly takes it out, and the business of trying it on follows at once. If all is well, the deal(买卖) can be and is often completed in less than five min
25、utes, with hard any chat and to everyones satisfaction.For a man, small problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman tries to sell the customer something elsehe offers the nearest he can to the thing asked for. He wou
26、ld say, “I know this jacket is not the style you want, Sir, but would you like to try it on for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned.“ Few men have patience (耐心 ) with this treatment, and the usual answer is, “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my ti
27、me and yours by trying it on.“Now how docs a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect (方面) she does so quite differently. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind about what she wants, and she is only “having a look around“. She is always open to wh
28、at the salesman tells her, even to what her friends tell her. She will try on any number of things. What is most important in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Besides, most women have an excellent sense of value when they boy clothes. The), are always read
29、y for the unexpected bargain (便宜货). Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one counter to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It takes time, but surely it is enjoyable to women shoppers. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husba

33、thes, but men do not.（C） Women stand in a shop, but men sit down.（D）The time they take to buy clothes. 32 Three women who secretly buried an 80-year-old woman were put into prison at Birmingham yester day. Two of them, including the dead womans daughter, kept on collecting her pension (退休金) after he
34、r death until their secret was made known to others two years later. The court (法庭) heard that one of the women put on “an Oscar (奥斯卡金奖)winning performance“ by pretending to be the old woman asleep in bed when a social worker called five mouths after Mrs. Townsends death. 33 Of the three women that
