He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was 75, he gave 12,000 to the village school to buy lan
16、d and equipment for a childrens playground.As a result of his kindness, many people came to visit him. Among them was a newspaperman. During their talk, Johnson remarked that he was 75 and expected to live to be 100, and the newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at 75. Johnson had a se
17、nse of humor. He liked whisky and drank some each day. “I have an injection(注射)in my neck each evening”, he told the newspaperman, thinking of his evening glass of whisky.The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant. In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was 75 and had a daily injectio
18、n in his neck. Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain, asking him for the secret of his daily injection.36. Johnson became a rich man through _.A. doing business B. making whisky C. cheating D. buying and selling land37. The gift of money to the school suggests tha
19、t Johnson _.A. had no children B. was a strange man C. was very warm-hearted and fond of childrenD. wanted people to know how rich he was38. Many people wrote to Johnson probably to find out _.A. what kind of whisky he drankB. how to live aloneC. how to become wealthyD. in which part of the neck he
20、had an injection each day39. When Johnson said he had an injection in his neck each evening, he really meant that _A. he liked drinking a glass of whisky in the eveningB. he needed an injection in the neckC. a daily injecting in the evening would make him sleep wellD. there was something wrong with
21、his neck40. From the passage we can infer that Johnson would be very _ after he read those peoples letters.A. miserable B. glad C. surprised D. saidBBoth warm-blooded and cold-blooded desert animals have ways to escape the desert heat. Warm- blooded desert animals, such as rats and mice, rest during
22、 the day, often staying in cool underground burrows. At night they search for food. Animals that are out during the day, such as cold-blooded lizards and snakes, are active only for short periods. As their body temperature rises, these reptiles（爬行动物） move into the shade in order to cool down. In the
23、 early evening, when the sun grows weaker, the reptiles become more active and begin their search for food again.Getting enough water to survive is a major problem for all desert animals. Some desert animals, like desert birds, manage to find water holes. Other desert animals, such as the kangaroo r
24、at and the related jerboa, get water only from the food that they eat. Because these animals eat mainly dry seeds, they must survive on a tiny amount of water.Most deserts have only a small number of frogs and toads because these animals must be near water to survive. Yet even these creatures have a
25、dapted(适应) to desert conditions. When small amounts of water collect in temporary streams, the desert-living frogs and toads become active. After a rainfall, they lay their eggs. The eggs grow into tadpoles in a few days and into adults in just four weeks. When the puddles(水坑) dry up, the adult frog
26、s or toads dig into the ground. Their metabolism(新陈代谢) slows, and they stay beneath the ground until the next rain, which may be as good as a year away. Until then, their bodily activities continue at a reduced rate.The camel often called the ship of the desert is one of the most successful desert a
27、nimals. Camels can go for long periods without water, but eventually they must drink. When water becomes available to them after a long drought, they may drink 95 liters of water or more. When water is not available, what helps camels survive the desert heat is the fat stored in their humps(驼峰). A c
28、amels hump contains about 12 kilograms of fat. Fat is rich in hydrogen. As the fat is digested, hydrogen from the fat combines with oxygen in the air that the camel breathes. The result is H2O, or water. Each kilogram of fat that a camel digests produces about a liter of water.41. Desert animals are
29、 usually more active at night because _.A. it is cooler at night B. it is easier to find waterC. they like the dark D. they are less likely to be attacked at night42. Which of the following desert animals can get water only from the food?A. The camel. B. The kangaroo. C. The frog. D. The rat.43. Whi
30、ch of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. All the desert animals rest during the day.B. All the desert animals dont rest during the day.C. Cold-blooded desert animals are out most of the day.D. None of the cold-blooded desert animals go out during the day.44. The title for this passage
31、 could probably be _.A. Hot Deserts B. Desert AnimalsC. How Desert Animals Get Water D. Ways To Escape the Desert Heat45. The underlined word “burrows” in the first paragraph can be replaced by _.A. holes B. caves C. rooms D. openingsCIn bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the childs
32、acquisition(学会)of each new skill the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is common that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might ha
33、ppen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural ent
34、husiasm(热情) for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters; others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(准时) for meals. In general, the controls
35、 imposed(强加的) represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community(社区) as much as the childs own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards （道德标准） ）in the growing child, consistency（连贯性） is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the ne
36、xt is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have
37、been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.46. Eagerly watching the childs acquisition of new skills_.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in

39、their ownD. create as many learning opportunities as possible48. The second paragraph mainly tells us that _.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parental controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enfo
40、rced for the benefit of the children aloneD. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation49. The underlined word “precept” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_”.A. idea B. punishment C. behavior D. instruction50. In moral matters, parents should _.A. observe the r
41、ules themselvesB. be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD. satisfy their childrens needs IV 短文改错（10 分）I dont know John Denver.
