But for a small
21、 country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often makes the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the
22、 Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from the job in the north, they often prefer to move down to the south.Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of (is made up of) the counties of Devon and Corn
23、wall, where palm trees, bamboo and many semitropical plants grow well. Flowers and vegetables ripen as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. In winter there may be several feet of snow i
24、n other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of Englands most popular holiday areas.29 The distance from the center of England to south coast is about_.（A）one hundred miles（B） three hundred miles（C） one h
25、undred and fifty miles（D）six hundred miles30 According to the passage,_.（A）flowers and vegetables from Devon are on the market one month earlier（B） farmers in the southwest grow as many vegetables and flowers as farmers elsewhere（C） people in the southwest have to pay a higher price for vegetables a

27、ple in Devon and Cornwall,_.（A）never see any snow（B） seldom see snow（C） often see snow（D）may have seen several feet of snow32 As one approaches some crossroads, one comes to a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slo
28、w, but they do not actually have to stop (unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road); and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work
29、 one evening when he came to a crossroads. It had a “Slow“ sign, so he slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled in to the side of the road and stopped.
30、 A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and pencil in his hand and said, “You didnt stop at the crossing.“But the sign there doesnt say Stop,“ answered Mr Williams. “It just says Slow, and I did go slow.“The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put
31、his notebook and pencil away, scratched his head and said, “Well, Ill be blowed! I am in the wrong street!“33 At a crossroads, you reduce your cars speed when_.（A）there is s stop sign（B） there is a slow sign（C） you are on the main road（D）you are on the crossroad34 When Mr Williams heard the police w

33、iams had a driving license（C） the police thought that he was at a different crossroads with a stop sign on it（D）there was a slow sign that Mr Williams ignored36 The sentence “Well, Ill be blowed“ shows the feeling of_.（A）sadness（B） happiness（C） frustration（D）annoyance36 Every year gray whales migrat
34、e from the Bering Sea in Alaska to the Baja Peninsula in Mexico.Eleven gray whales have died in the San Francisco Bay in the last three weeks. No one knows why the whales are dying.Last year 270 whales died along the whales migration route. Many people think starvation is the cause. This year the de
35、ad whales seem to have more blubber (fat) on them.Twenty years ago, the gray whale was listed as an endangered species.Some scientists think that the larger number of whales makes it hard to find enough food. More whales create more pressure on the food supply, a supply that some scientists say may
36、have dwindled as a result of the warm waters of El Nino.Most of the whales have been dead for many days before they are found and studied. This makes it hard to find the reason for death.65 whales have been seen in the San Francisco Bay Area this year compared to 17 last year. The whales could be dy
37、ing from many diseases, but it may be over-population.37 Which of the following is NOT a possible reason for whales dying?（A）Pneumonia.（B） Brain infection.（C） Over-population.（D）Over-eating.38 Why might the increasing number of whales cause problems with their health?（A）Theres not enough room for th
