三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，计30分）

阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

A

Wetlands are any land that is flooded with shallow water all or most of the time. They are a natural water holding system.

There are many types of wetlands. Among them, bogs, marshes and swamps are the three main types. The different types of wetlands have different kinds of plants. Only mosses（苔藓）and a few other kinds of plants can grow in bogs. Grassy plants like cattails（香蒲）and reeds（芦苇）are the most common plants in a marsh. A swamp is a forest whose ground is underwater all or most of the time. Unlike bogs or marshes, a swamp is full of trees and bushes. It's not a good idea to go exploring a swamp without a guide. There are hidden pools of water, thick mud, and sometimes big crocodiles（鳄鱼）looking for their next meal.

Hungry crocodiles aren't the only animals that make the wetlands their home. Otters, turtles, frogs, snakes and many other animals do too. The water is home to many kinds of fish and crabs. Birds, including ducks, geese and cranes, use wetlands seasonally during their long migrations.

Wetlands are important because they provide habitats for plants and animals. A wetland system can also protect shorelines, make polluted waters clean, prevent floods, and restore underground water supplies.

According to WWF, more than half of the world's wetlands have disappeared since the beginning of the 20th century. If this continues, countless plant and animal species will surely die out. Without wetlands, cities have to spend more money to treat water. Don't feel helpless. Try to do your part to protect them right now. Here are some ideas.

31. According to Paragraph 2, what can you see in a swamp?

A. Mosses.   B. Cattails.   C. Reeds.    D. Trees.

32. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Wetlands are a man-made water holding system.

B. There are three types of wetlands in the world.

C. People can not meet with big crocodiles in wetlands.

D. Wetlands can protect shorelines and prevent floods.

33. What is the writer probably going to talk about after Paragraph 5?

A. What are the different types of wetlands?

B. What will happen if wetlands disappear?

C. What actions can people take to protect wetlands?

D. What other kinds of plants and animals live in wetlands?

B

Every month, Julia and her cousins would go for the big family meal at their grandparents' house. On each visit, their grandpa would give them a few coins.

A little after a year the violinist loaned her a violin so they two could play together in the park. They were so successful that she managed to buy her own violin.

My five-year-old son befriends the woman. It starts with voices in the yard. When I come out to check on Daniel, his face is pressed on the fence（篱笆）.

 The woman says, “You wait right here; I'll be right back. ”

She returns with a saw（锯子）. There's a whirring. A circle in the wooden fence drops out of sight.

“Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence so Sandy and me can talk! ” Daniel spins around.

Ihadn't known her name was Sandy. We've lived here a month before Daniel was born.

Daniel's and Sandy's murmuring voices continue. Whenever Daniel is outside, he circles near the fence that isn't a fence any more. Some days my son just goes to stand at the hole, yelling, “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy! ” Sometimes I hear bits of their talk.

“We painted a ghost at school. ”

Or: “Wheeler and Jackson were playing football, and they told me I couldn't play. ”

“That wasn't very nice, ” says Sandy. “Did that hurt your feelings? Did you let them know that? ”

I can't hear how he replies. A moment of envy runs through me. He never talks about his school things with me.

Daniel and Sandy not only keep chatting through the hole, they also exchange gifts. A coloring book, then a Hot Wheels car. It's unclear what Daniel gives Sandy in return.

One afternoon, I hear Sandy's voice floating over the top of the fence with the hole. “I thought maybe Daniel could come for a play date. ”

We ring the bell on Sandy's porch. She's a middle-aged woman with smiling eyes. Sandy's yard is sweet with the smell of flowers. We have a pleasant afternoon with Sandy, my son's adult friend, the first friend Daniel has made on his own.

A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas. She left behind a box of presents: a coloring book, sidewalk chalk, the missing orange part in the Hot Wheels track. When I look at Daniel, he's looking down at his shoes.

He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy! ” he cries. “Hello! Helloooooo! ”

One day, Daniel receives Sandy's postcard. They write frequently, warmly.

Researchers at China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp, a State-owned defense contractor, have developed and made the world's first robot whale shark（鲸鲨）.

The robotic shark has been on display in an aquarium（水族馆）at Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park since January.

A whale shark is a slow-moving carpet shark and the largest known living fish.

Designed and built by engineers at the Shenyang-based No 111 Factory, the underwater robot is 4.7 meters long, weighs 350 kilograms and can move 42 meters a minute.

Powered by a lithium battery, it can swim, turn, float and dive like a real shark by moving its mechanical fins（鳍）. The mouth and gills（鳃）can also open and close like a shark's. The biomimetic shark is made of sensors（传感器）, multi-joint fins, batteries, and systems which enable it to avoid what's in the way in all directions.

“The robot can reach a depth of 10 meters and work for as long as 10 hours, ” said Fang Xuelin, a senior researcher in charge of the robot shark program.

“The shark can be remotely controlled and can also swim based on preset programs or its own sensors, ” he said.

“We have built multiple kinds of robot fishes… the robotic whale shark is the largest mechanical fish we have made so far, ” Fang added. “Our robots are to serve three purposes—to perform in aquariums for entertainment, spread knowledge about the sea and aquatic（水生的）animals among youngsters, and carry out scientific tasks such as hydrological surveys, underwater photography and environmental inspection. ”

“The factory now plans to develop more types of aquatic robots, including some extinct mammals（哺乳动物）, for display in parks and schools. It will also promote the products to businesses engaged in fields such as underwater salvage and mineral prospecting, ” he said.

42. The whale shark on display is ______.

A. the world's first robot      B. the largest living fish

C. a 7.4-meter-long shark     D. a robotic shark

44. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The shark is the first mechanical fish made at the factory.

B. Powered by a lithium battery, the shark can swim without stopping.

C. The factory has built multiple kinds of robot fishes including the shark.

D. The factory has developed some extinct mammals for display in parks.

You don't know me unless you read a book called The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Huck's my name, Huckleberry Finn. That book ends like this: my best friend, Tom Sawyer, and I found $12,000 in gold in a cave. We became rich. We got $6,000 each.

My mother died long ago and then my dad, Pap, disappeared. He was always drunk and he often beat me. Then a kind old lady called Widow Douglas took me into her home to live. She gave me a bed to sleep in and bought new clothes for me. She read stories to me and taught me how to eat at a table. She sent me to school every day.

I hated those new clothes. I missed my old life. I put on my old clothes and ran away and was free and happy, but Tom Sawyer found me and said that if I wanted to join his club, I would have to return to live with the widow. For this reason, I returned to live with her.

The months passed and winter came. The weather got cold. One morning I woke up and there was snow on the ground. On my way to school I saw some footprints outside the widow's house. My heart jumped. Pap!

“He's heard about my money, ” I thought. “And he wants it! ”

When I lit my candle and went up to my room that night, there sat Pap—his own self! I expected to be scared of him now, but I wasn't. I stood looking at him; he set there—looking at me.

Pap was nearly fifty years old. His black hair was long and uncombed and dirty. He had allowed hair to grow on his face, which was ghostly white. Just looking at the ugly white skin made me feel sick. His clothes? —dirty and torn. His feet showed through large holes in his shoes. His hat was on the floor—an old black hat with a large hole in it.

—Taken from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

The museum has 11 themed exhibitions（展览）.
