Ⅱ.阅读理解

A

The first people in Canada crossed the Bering Strait from Asia.In the north the Inuit lived by hunting seals，walruses and whales.They also hunted caribou.On the west coast people hunted deer, bear and beaver.They also fished.On the plains people lived by hunting buffalo.In the east people grew crops of beans, squash, maize and sunflower seeds.

The first Europeans to reach Canada were the Vikings.In 986 a Viking called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he spotted a new land.However he sailed away without landing.In 1001 a man named Leif Eriksson landed in the new land, which he named Vinland (it was part of Canada)．However Eriksson did not stay permanently.Later the Vikings did establish a colony in North America but they abandoned it because of conflict with the natives.

However after the Vikings Canada was forgotten until the end of the 15th century.In 1497 the English king Henry Ⅶ sent an Italian named John Cabot on an expedition across the Atlantic to Newfoundland.Cabot discovered rich fishing waters off the coast of Canada.

Then in 1534 and in 1535－1536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (1491－1557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada.On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrence's Day) he sailed into the St Lawrence River, which he named after the saint.

However no permanent European settlements were made in Canada until the early 17th century.In 1603 a Frenchman named Samuel de Champlain (1567－1635) sailed up the St Lawrence River.In 1604 he founded Port Royal in Acadia (Nova Scotia)．In 1608 Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec.(The name Quebec is believed to be an Algonquin word meaning a narrow part of a river)．In 1642 the French founded Montreal.The new colony in Canada was called New France.By 1685 the population of New France was about 10,000.By 1740 it was 48,000.

B

We have met the enemy，and he is ours.We bought him at a pet shop.When monkey­pox，a disease usually found in the African rain forest，suddenly turns up in children in the American Midwest，it's hard not to wonder if the disease that comes from foreign animals is homing in on human beings.“Most of the infections (感染) we think of as human infections started in other animals，”says Stephen Morse，director of the Center for Public Health Preparedness at Columbia University.

It's not just that we're going to where the animals are；we're also bringing them closer to us.Popular foreign pets have brought a whole new disease to this country.A strange illness killed Isaksen's pets，and she now thinks that keeping foreign pets is a bad idea.“I don't think it's fair to have them as pets when we have such a limited knowledge of them，”says Isaksen.

“Laws allowing these animals to be brought in from deep forest areas without stricter control need changing，”says Peter Schantz.Monkey­pox may be the_wake­up_call.Researchers believe infected animals may infect their owners.We know very little about these new diseases.A new bug (病毒) may be kind at first.But it may develop into something harmful (有害的)．Monkey­pox doesn't look a major infectious disease.But it is not impossible to pass the disease from person to person.

【语篇解读】　饲养宠物可能被传染疾病。猴痘本是非洲雨林中的一种疾病，现在突然出现在美国西部的孩子们的身上。我们认为的大多数只有人类才会感染的疾病其实就是来自动物。国家要制定严格的法律，控制外来动物把疾病传播给人类。

4．We learn from Paragraph 1 that the pet sold at the shop may ________.

A．come from Columbia

B．prevent us from being infected

C．enjoy being with children

D．suffer from monkey­pox

【解析】　细节理解题。根据第一段的第一、二两句话可知，我们从宠物商店购买的动物身上携带疾病，而动物能将疾病传播给人类。下文以猴痘为例说明作者的观点。

【答案】　D

5．Why did Isaksen advise people not to have foreign pets?

A．They attack human beings.

B．We need to study native animals.

C．They can't live out of the rain forest.

D．We do not know much about them yet.

【解析】　推理判断题。从第二段中的“A strange illness killed Isaksen's pets，and  she now thinks that keeping foreign pets is a bad idea.‘I don't think it's fair to have them as pets when we have such a limited knowledge of them’”可知答案为D。

【答案】　D

6．What does the phrase “the wake­up call” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?

A．A new disease.

B．A clear warning.

C．A dangerous animal.

D．A morning call.

【解析】　词义猜测题。根据文章的内容可知，猴痘是一种从非洲的动物身上传播到人类身上的疾病，这种情况给人类带来了一种警示：不要随意把野外的动物带回家中饲养，以免使宠物主人感染疾病。“the wake­up call”表示“一种警示”。

【答案】　B

7．The text suggests that in the future we ________.

A．may have to fight against more new diseases

B．may easily get infected by diseases from dogs

Dear Mrs.Winthorp，

So my first week at college is over! No lectures this morning so I think I'd email you and let you know what things are going.

I'm glad to say that anything has worked out fine in the dorm.I remember asking for a room as far away from the lifts as possible and they find me a comfortable one on second floor.There are two girls from my course here and I plan to make friend with them so that we can help each other on the course work.Everyone else seems very nice and warmly here.

Well，I had better to stop now.I'm going to attend mine first lesson this afternoon，for I've got some preparation to make.Keep in touch.

Best，

Carol
