Space is dangerous. But human innovation has allowed people to explore this deadly environment for decades. Within the protection of a space station, astronauts have enough air, food and water to complete missions of a year or longer. But missions to further reaches of space are a different matter. Establishing a base on the moon or sending humans to Mars seems just on the horizon. That can only happen if innovative and safe ways are developed.
One company, Interstellar Labs, believes they have created a system that can solve the food problem. They have developed an advanced system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. They call their artificial intelligence (AI) managed greenhouses BioPods, and they are designed to be very efficient. In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. That is not an impossible claim. BioPods don’t use any soil to grow plants, and the vast majority of water is recycled.
Plants are grown inside BioPods using aeroponics, the practice of hanging plants in the air and spraying a mist of nutrient-rich water on their roots. According to Interstellar Labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water.
The conditions inside of a BioPod are controlled by AI, which can change anything from the lighting to the temperature and humidity. This improves growing conditions no matter what the environment is, including the emptiness of space.
The BioPods can be built in almost any environment. The pod’s structure is made with a 3D printer using raw materials in liquid form. This means that a BioPod could be built right on the surface of the moon or Mars, making transporting a large structure unnecessary.
4．Which word can replace the underlined phrase “on the horizon” in paragraph 1?
A．Strange. B．Doubtful. C．Easy D．Approaching.
5．What can we learn about a BioPod?
A．It is the name of a company. B．It is a modern greenhouse.
C．It has been widely used in space. D．It’s 3D-printed with solid materials.
6．What is an advantage of BioPod-grown plants?
A．They make the most of soil. B．They don’t need any nutrients.
C．They are of higher production. D．They aren’t strict about conditions.
7．What is the text mainly about?
A．The application of AI in agriculture. B．Human’s efforts in space exploration.
C．The methods of improving food output. D．Growing food in space pods to feed astronauts.
C
If you’ve spent any amount of time boating, fishing, or bird-watching at lakes and rivers, you have most likely seen fishes jumping out of the water. I have seen it many times. Certainly, fishes will exit water in desperate attempts to escape enemies. Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair. But just as we may run fast from fun or from fear, different emotions might motivate fishes to jump.
Mobula rays（蝠鲼）aren’t motivated by fear when they throw their impressive bodies—up to a seventeen-foot wingspan (the distance from the end of one wing to the end of the other) and a ton in weight—skyward in leap（跳跃）of up to ten feet. They do it in schools（鱼群）of hundreds. They usually land on their bellies, but sometimes they land on their backs. Some scientists think it might be a way of removing parasites（寄生虫）. But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.
In the clear waters of Florida’s Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets（鲻鱼）moving in beautiful formation. Their well-built bodies were most evident when they leaped from the water. Most of the time I saw one or two leaps by a fish, but one made a series of seven. They usually land on their sides. Each jump was about a foot clear of the water and two to three feet in length.
Nobody knows for sure why the fish leaps. One idea is that they do it to take in oxygen. The idea is supported by the fact that mullets leap more when the water is lower in oxygen, but is challenged by the likelihood that jumping costs more energy than is gained by breathing air. It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.
Might these fishes also be leaping for fun? There is some new evidence. Gordon M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason other than entertainment.
8．What can we say about the dolphins in Paragraph 1?
A．They have great escaping skills. B．They are easily frightened.
C．They are very clever. D．They love jumping.
9．What do the ray and the mullet have in common when jumping?
A．Both do it in groups. B．Both land on their bellies.
C．Both jump many feet out of water. D．Both make leaps one after the other.
10．How does the author feel about the idea mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A．It is valuable. B．It is interesting.
C．It is imaginative. D．It is questionable.
11．Which may be the reason for fish leaps according to the author?
A．To remove parasites. B．To amuse themselves.
C．To take in more oxygen. D．To express positive emotions.
D
Revealed to the world by the famous British explorer, Dr David Livingstone, in 1855, the Victoria Falls are one of Africa’s best-known natural wonders. They form a natural border between Zimbabwe (津巴布韦) and Zambia (赞比亚).
The falls are named after Queen Victoria by Livingstone. They were known to the native people in the 18th century as: "the smoke that thunders". The waterfall is formed as the two-kilometer-wide Zambezi River spills (溅) over the edge of its giant stone riverbed and falls into the gorge (山谷) below. At their highest point, the Victoria Falls drop a distance of 108m, almost twice as far as the Niagara Falls. As much as 546 million cubic meters of water per minute falls over the edge from that height.
Viewing the falls from the Zambian side means that visitors can follow a path that goes right up to the falls. The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot, right in the depths of the gorge at the bottom of the falls. The 111-meter-high Victoria Falls Bridge, a railway crossing, is now a popular place for Bungee jumping. It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls and the winding blue-green waters of the Zambezi River. It is also possible to see the falls from a plane.
The area around the falls is a major game-viewing place. The best time to view the Victoria Falls is between December and July, when the water level is the highest. Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com。
12．The author of the passage is likely to be ______.
A．a government officer B．a tourist guide
C．a traveler D．a teacher
13．According to the passage, we know that the Victoria Falls ________.
A．are the best place to enjoy Bungee jumping
B．drop twice as far as the Niagara Falls
C．are a man-made wonder in Africa
D．were discovered by a British man
14．How many ways did the author mention to view the falls?
A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.
15．The purpose of the passage is to ______.
A．introduce a famous natural wonder —the Victoria Falls
B．tell us the discovery of the Victoria Falls
C．show how the Victoria Falls are formed
D．advise travelers to come to the Victoria Falls

Literature is the body of written works produced by scholars and researchers, who specialize in a given field. Why is literature important? Let’s see.
Literary works are descriptions of the thinking patterns and social criteria. They’re a description of the different aspects of common people’s life. ___16___ They also encourage imagination and creativity. Exposing oneself to good literary works is like providing one with the finest educational opportunities. On the other hand, the lack of exposure to good literature is equal to depriving(剥夺)one of the opportunity to grow.
Some of the great literary works provide society with the guiding principles of life. Works by poets like Homer, Plato, Sappho, Horace and many more are timeless. ____17____ The Lord of the Rings, The Godfather, A Tale of Two Cities, and James Bond series are some of the best-selling books of all time that have entertained several generations.

Moral stories are an aid for parents and teachers to let the kids learn important lessons in life. Aesop, Enid Blyton, and Mark Twain are some of the most widely popular children’s authors. ____18____
True, languages are the building blocks of literature. But the study of literature cannot be restricted to only studying languages. ___19___ A degree in language and literature perhaps can’t provide one with everything literature can offer. Its scope(范围)is so deep and wide that even a lifetime may not be enough to really study literature.

The e-mail request came into Ekiben restaurant late on a Thursday afternoon in March. Brandon Jones, the man who sent the e-mail didn't actually want the food himelf. He was writing on behalf of his mother-in-law, Shirley, who loved the broccoli（西兰花）dish with fresh herbs and cucumber vinegar. He went on to explain that she was now in the final stage of lung cancer at her home in Vermont and that he was hoping to get the recipe（烹饪法）to make it for her there. Steve Chu, one of the restaurant's co-owners, read the e-mail and quickly replied, "Thanks for reaching out," he wrote. "We'd like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you."
Brandon was shocked. "I emailed back, saying, 'You do know that this is Vermont we're talking about, right?'" says Brandon. "But Chu responded, 'No problem. You tell us the date, time and location and we'll be there."
For the past six years, every time Shirley visited Baltimore, the first place she wanted to go was Ekiben so she could order that dish. "She loves that broccoli, and I really wanted her to have it one more time," Brandon says.
"She had always told us, 'When I'm on my deathbed, I want to have that broccoli,'" recalls Brandon's wife, Rina Jones. That Friday after work, a day after receiving Brandon's e-mail, Chu loaded his truck with a hot plate and a cooler and then headed for Vermont with his business partner, Ephrem Abebe, and an employee. They stayed overnight in a tent and drove the next day to the small town where Shirley lived.
As soon as Chu and his team pulled into the parking lot, they got to work. They pulled down the gate of the pickup, fixed the hot plate on the truck's power port, and started cooking and deep-frying. In addition to broccoli, they made tofu with peanut sauce and fresh herbs and some steamed rice. After neatly boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer's door.

They call their artificial intelligence (AI) managed greenhouses BioPods, and they are designed to be very efficient. In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. ”（一家名为星际实验室的公司相信他们已经创建了一个系统来解决食物问题。他们已经开发出一种先进的系统，可以在任何地方种植植物，甚至在太空中。他们把自己的人工智能(AI)管理的温室称为“ BioPods”，而且设计得非常高效。事实上，星际实验室声称BioPods可以将生产食物所需的土地和水资源减少99% 。）讲述了一家名为星际实验室的公司研发了一个先进的温室系统 BioPods，这个系统的优越性是可以将生产食物所需的土地和水资源减少99%）；第三段中“According to Interstellar Labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water.”（根据星际实验室的数据，BioPod种植的植物比传统种植的植物多产300倍，只需要少量的水。）可知，利用先进的温室BioPod种植的作物产量高。和下文对BioPod的优越性的说明，本文主要讲述了利用先进的温室BioPod，可以给宇航员提供生存用的食物。故选D。
8．C 9．A 10．D 11．B
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了鱼为何要跃出水面，一些人认为是因为情绪的激发和要去除寄生虫，但作者认为它们可能是为了享受快乐。
8．推理判断题。由第一段中的“Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair.”（ 海豚利用这种行为，围成一个圈，在半空中抓住受惊的鱼。）可知，海豚能够巧妙地吃掉跃出水面的鱼，说明它们很聪明。故选C项。
9．细节理解题。由第二段中的“They do it in schools（鱼群）of hundreds.”（ 蝸鲼成群跳跃。）和第三段中的“I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets（鲻鱼）moving in beautiful formation.”（ 我看到几个由50只或更多的鲻鱼组成的鱼群以美丽的队形移动。）可知，蝠鲼和鲻鱼都是成群地跳跃。故选A项。
10．推理判断题。由第四段中的“It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.”（ 很难想象当它们回到水里时会感觉更新鲜。）可知，作者认为第四段提到的猜想是值得怀疑的。故选D项。
11．推理判断题。由第二段中的“But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.”（ 但我觉得它们很享受光线。）和最后一段中的“Gordon M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason other than entertainment.”（Gordon M.Burghardt最近发表了一系列关于十几种鱼类反复跳跃的报道，有时是在漂浮的物体上，树枝，植物，晒海龟，除了娱乐之外，没有其他明确的原因。）可知，作者认为鱼跃出水面可能是为了享受快乐。故选B项。
推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分——推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分——推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。如在第1小题中，第一段中的“Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair.”，是已知部分，通过结合原文进行合理地逻辑判断，可以得出海豚能够巧妙地吃掉跃出水面的鱼，说明它们很聪明。故选C项。
12．B 13．D 14．C 15．D
试题分析：本文介绍了一个自然奇观维多利亚瀑布（Victoria Falls）。

13．D推理判断题。根据文章第一句Revealed to the world by the famous British explorer, Dr David Livingstone, in 1855, the Victoria Falls are one of Africa’s best-known natural wonders.可知，维多利亚瀑布是一位英国的探险家发现。故选D。
14．C推理判断题。根据第四段对于看维多利亚瀑布的介绍，有如下几种方法Viewing the falls from the Zambian side；The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot；It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls；It is also possible to see the falls from a plane.故答案为4种，选C。
15．A写作目的题。通读全文很明显可看出，本文介绍了一个著名的自然奇观，从最后一句 Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com给出的旅游中心的地址，电话和联系方式可看出这可能是一位导游写的，通过这样的介绍想吸引游客来参观维多利亚瀑布，故答案为D。
考点：考察广告布告类短文阅读。
对于写作目的题，一定要在理解全文意义的基础上找到文章中的关键信息句子。比如这篇文章通读全文很明显可看出，本文介绍了一个著名的自然奇观Victoria Falls，这样的话小题35很容易选择错误的答案A，但是从最后一句 Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com给出的旅游中心的地址，电话和联系方式可看出这可能是一位导游写的，通过这样的介绍目的是想吸引游客来参观维多利亚瀑布，故答案为D。

Space is dangerous. But human innovation has allowed people to explore this deadly environment for decades. Within the protection of a space station, astronauts have enough air, food and water to complete missions of a year or longer. But missions to further reaches of space are a different matter. Establishing a base on the moon or sending humans to Mars seems just on the horizon. That can only happen if innovative and safe ways are developed.
One company, Interstellar Labs, believes they have created a system that can solve the food problem. They have developed an advanced system that can grow plants anywhere, even in space. They call their artificial intelligence (AI) managed greenhouses BioPods, and they are designed to be very efficient. In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. That is not an impossible claim. BioPods don’t use any soil to grow plants, and the vast majority of water is recycled.
Plants are grown inside BioPods using aeroponics, the practice of hanging plants in the air and spraying a mist of nutrient-rich water on their roots. According to Interstellar Labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water.
The conditions inside of a BioPod are controlled by AI, which can change anything from the lighting to the temperature and humidity. This improves growing conditions no matter what the environment is, including the emptiness of space.
The BioPods can be built in almost any environment. The pod’s structure is made with a 3D printer using raw materials in liquid form. This means that a BioPod could be built right on the surface of the moon or Mars, making transporting a large structure unnecessary.
4．Which word can replace the underlined phrase “on the horizon” in paragraph 1?
A．Strange. B．Doubtful. C．Easy D．Approaching.
5．What can we learn about a BioPod?
A．It is the name of a company. B．It is a modern greenhouse.
C．It has been widely used in space. D．It’s 3D-printed with solid materials.
6．What is an advantage of BioPod-grown plants?
A．They make the most of soil. B．They don’t need any nutrients.
C．They are of higher production. D．They aren’t strict about conditions.
7．What is the text mainly about?
A．The application of AI in agriculture. B．Human’s efforts in space exploration.
C．The methods of improving food output. D．Growing food in space pods to feed astronauts.

If you’ve spent any amount of time boating, fishing, or bird-watching at lakes and rivers, you have most likely seen fishes jumping out of the water. I have seen it many times. Certainly, fishes will exit water in desperate attempts to escape enemies. Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair. But just as we may run fast from fun or from fear, different emotions might motivate fishes to jump.
Mobula rays（蝠鲼）aren’t motivated by fear when they throw their impressive bodies—up to a seventeen-foot wingspan (the distance from the end of one wing to the end of the other) and a ton in weight—skyward in leap（跳跃）of up to ten feet. They do it in schools（鱼群）of hundreds. They usually land on their bellies, but sometimes they land on their backs. Some scientists think it might be a way of removing parasites（寄生虫）. But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.
In the clear waters of Florida’s Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets（鲻鱼）moving in beautiful formation. Their well-built bodies were most evident when they leaped from the water. Most of the time I saw one or two leaps by a fish, but one made a series of seven. They usually land on their sides. Each jump was about a foot clear of the water and two to three feet in length.
Nobody knows for sure why the fish leaps. One idea is that they do it to take in oxygen. The idea is supported by the fact that mullets leap more when the water is lower in oxygen, but is challenged by the likelihood that jumping costs more energy than is gained by breathing air. It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.
Might these fishes also be leaping for fun? There is some new evidence. Gordon M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason other than entertainment.
8．What can we say about the dolphins in Paragraph 1?
A．They have great escaping skills. B．They are easily frightened.
C．They are very clever. D．They love jumping.
9．What do the ray and the mullet have in common when jumping?
A．Both do it in groups. B．Both land on their bellies.
C．Both jump many feet out of water. D．Both make leaps one after the other.
10．How does the author feel about the idea mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A．It is valuable. B．It is interesting.
C．It is imaginative. D．It is questionable.
11．Which may be the reason for fish leaps according to the author?
A．To remove parasites. B．To amuse themselves.
C．To take in more oxygen. D．To express positive emotions.

Revealed to the world by the famous British explorer, Dr David Livingstone, in 1855, the Victoria Falls are one of Africa’s best-known natural wonders. They form a natural border between Zimbabwe (津巴布韦) and Zambia (赞比亚).
The falls are named after Queen Victoria by Livingstone. They were known to the native people in the 18th century as: "the smoke that thunders". The waterfall is formed as the two-kilometer-wide Zambezi River spills (溅) over the edge of its giant stone riverbed and falls into the gorge (山谷) below. At their highest point, the Victoria Falls drop a distance of 108m, almost twice as far as the Niagara Falls. As much as 546 million cubic meters of water per minute falls over the edge from that height.
Viewing the falls from the Zambian side means that visitors can follow a path that goes right up to the falls. The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot, right in the depths of the gorge at the bottom of the falls. The 111-meter-high Victoria Falls Bridge, a railway crossing, is now a popular place for Bungee jumping. It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls and the winding blue-green waters of the Zambezi River. It is also possible to see the falls from a plane.
The area around the falls is a major game-viewing place. The best time to view the Victoria Falls is between December and July, when the water level is the highest. Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com。

A．a government officer B．a tourist guide
C．a traveler D．a teacher
13．According to the passage, we know that the Victoria Falls ________.
A．are the best place to enjoy Bungee jumping

C．are a man-made wonder in Africa
D．were discovered by a British man

Literature is the body of written works produced by scholars and researchers, who specialize in a given field. Why is literature important? Let’s see.
Literary works are descriptions of the thinking patterns and social criteria. They’re a description of the different aspects of common people’s life. ___16___ They also encourage imagination and creativity. Exposing oneself to good literary works is like providing one with the finest educational opportunities. On the other hand, the lack of exposure to good literature is equal to depriving(剥夺)one of the opportunity to grow.
Some of the great literary works provide society with the guiding principles of life. Works by poets like Homer, Plato, Sappho, Horace and many more are timeless. ____17____ The Lord of the Rings, The Godfather, A Tale of Two Cities, and James Bond series are some of the best-selling books of all time that have entertained several generations.
There are also great works in children’s literature. Amused by the stones they tell, kids associate themselves with these books’ characters and idealize some of them. Moral stories are an aid for parents and teachers to let the kids learn important lessons in life. Aesop, Enid Blyton, and Mark Twain are some of the most widely popular children’s authors. ____18____
True, languages are the building blocks of literature. But the study of literature cannot be restricted to only studying languages. ___19___ A degree in language and literature perhaps can’t provide one with everything literature can offer. Its scope(范围)is so deep and wide that even a lifetime may not be enough to really study literature.
____20____ Great literary and poetic works help a person take a closer look at the different aspects of living. In many ways, literature, in its different forms, can change one’s attitude towards living.

Steve Chu, one of the restaurant's co-owners, read the e-mail and quickly replied, "Thanks for reaching out," he wrote. "We'd like to meet you in Vermont and make it fresh for you."
Brandon was shocked. "I emailed back, saying, 'You do know that this is Vermont we're talking about, right?'" says Brandon. "But Chu responded, 'No problem. You tell us the date, time and location and we'll be there."
For the past six years, every time Shirley visited Baltimore, the first place she wanted to go was Ekiben so she could order that dish. "She loves that broccoli, and I really wanted her to have it one more time," Brandon says.
"She had always told us, 'When I'm on my deathbed, I want to have that broccoli,'" recalls Brandon's wife, Rina Jones. That Friday after work, a day after receiving Brandon's e-mail, Chu loaded his truck with a hot plate and a cooler and then headed for Vermont with his business partner, Ephrem Abebe, and an employee. They stayed overnight in a tent and drove the next day to the small town where Shirley lived.
As soon as Chu and his team pulled into the parking lot, they got to work. They pulled down the gate of the pickup, fixed the hot plate on the truck's power port, and started cooking and deep-frying. In addition to broccoli, they made tofu with peanut sauce and fresh herbs and some steamed rice. After neatly boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer's door.

In fact, Interstellar Labs claims that BioPods reduce the amount of land and water needed to produce food by 99 percent. ”（一家名为星际实验室的公司相信他们已经创建了一个系统来解决食物问题。他们已经开发出一种先进的系统，可以在任何地方种植植物，甚至在太空中。他们把自己的人工智能(AI)管理的温室称为“ BioPods”，而且设计得非常高效。事实上，星际实验室声称BioPods可以将生产食物所需的土地和水资源减少99% 。）讲述了一家名为星际实验室的公司研发了一个先进的温室系统 BioPods，这个系统的优越性是可以将生产食物所需的土地和水资源减少99%）；第三段中“According to Interstellar Labs, BioPod-grown plants are up to 300 times more productive than traditionally grown plants, using only a small amount of water.”（根据星际实验室的数据，BioPod种植的植物比传统种植的植物多产300倍，只需要少量的水。）可知，利用先进的温室BioPod种植的作物产量高。和下文对BioPod的优越性的说明，本文主要讲述了利用先进的温室BioPod，可以给宇航员提供生存用的食物。故选D。
8．C 9．A 10．D 11．B
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了鱼为何要跃出水面，一些人认为是因为情绪的激发和要去除寄生虫，但作者认为它们可能是为了享受快乐。
8．推理判断题。由第一段中的“Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair.”（ 海豚利用这种行为，围成一个圈，在半空中抓住受惊的鱼。）可知，海豚能够巧妙地吃掉跃出水面的鱼，说明它们很聪明。故选C项。
9．细节理解题。由第二段中的“They do it in schools（鱼群）of hundreds.”（ 蝸鲼成群跳跃。）和第三段中的“I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets（鲻鱼）moving in beautiful formation.”（ 我看到几个由50只或更多的鲻鱼组成的鱼群以美丽的队形移动。）可知，蝠鲼和鲻鱼都是成群地跳跃。故选A项。
10．推理判断题。由第四段中的“It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.”（ 很难想象当它们回到水里时会感觉更新鲜。）可知，作者认为第四段提到的猜想是值得怀疑的。故选D项。

Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason other than entertainment.”（Gordon M.Burghardt最近发表了一系列关于十几种鱼类反复跳跃的报道，有时是在漂浮的物体上，树枝，植物，晒海龟，除了娱乐之外，没有其他明确的原因。）可知，作者认为鱼跃出水面可能是为了享受快乐。故选B项。
推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分——推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分——推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。如在第1小题中，第一段中的“Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair.”，是已知部分，通过结合原文进行合理地逻辑判断，可以得出海豚能够巧妙地吃掉跃出水面的鱼，说明它们很聪明。故选C项。

试题分析：本文介绍了一个自然奇观维多利亚瀑布（Victoria Falls）。
12．B细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后的内容Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com。可知这篇文章的作者应该是一名导游。故选B。
13．D推理判断题。根据文章第一句Revealed to the world by the famous British explorer, Dr David Livingstone, in 1855, the Victoria Falls are one of Africa’s best-known natural wonders.可知，维多利亚瀑布是一位英国的探险家发现。故选D。
14．C推理判断题。根据第四段对于看维多利亚瀑布的介绍，有如下几种方法Viewing the falls from the Zambian side；The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot；It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls；It is also possible to see the falls from a plane.故答案为4种，选C。
15．A写作目的题。通读全文很明显可看出，本文介绍了一个著名的自然奇观，从最后一句 Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com给出的旅游中心的地址，电话和联系方式可看出这可能是一位导游写的，通过这样的介绍想吸引游客来参观维多利亚瀑布，故答案为D。
考点：考察广告布告类短文阅读。
对于写作目的题，一定要在理解全文意义的基础上找到文章中的关键信息句子。比如这篇文章通读全文很明显可看出，本文介绍了一个著名的自然奇观Victoria Falls，这样的话小题35很容易选择错误的答案A，但是从最后一句 Contact Addresses Tourist Centre, Livingstone, Zambia Tel: (03) 321 404E-mail: zntb@zamnet.zm Website: www.zambiatourism.com给出的旅游中心的地址，电话和联系方式可看出这可能是一位导游写的，通过这样的介绍目的是想吸引游客来参观维多利亚瀑布，故答案为D。

With her mouth widely open, she recognized Chu and his coworkers immediately and kept saying, "I can't believe that you drove all the way up here to cook for me!"
