25、r第三节:阅读理解(共 20 小题;每题 1 分,满分 20 分)(A )Tug-of-war is not only popular in China , but in many other countries . Their tug-of-war match is a little different from ours . They have eight men for each team , while we may have the match between two sides with equal men or women players . Of cause , they ar
26、e usually tall , strong and heavy . For a tug-of-war match , we need a long thick rope . Each team stands at one end of the rope , holding it . Then they try to pull the center of the rope , marked in the ground towards each of their own sides . The team which succeeds in pulling the center of the r
27、ope away through a certain distance is the winner . Many foreign sports experts think we dont have to be tall , heavy and strong to play tug-of-war . We dont have endless energy , for a match lasts only a few minutes . The secret is good hands . The players must have big strong , hard hands . Before
28、 they start the match they put mixture of oil and petrol on their hands so they can hold the rope better . Many foreign experts say the best hand for tug-of-war belong to the sons of farmers . This is because they have to work hard when they are still very young . Farming is a good practice for this
29、 sport ! 51. In our country tug-of-war .A. is not very popular B. is not so popular as in foreign countriesC. is only a mens game D. is not only played by men but also by women 52.

33、n couldnt associate(交往)with each other . When we are asked whether boys and girls can associate with each other , most of us will say , “ Yes , of course . Why not ? ”If we want to deal with the association between boys and girls properly , here are some “ dos and donts ” for you to follow . 1. Keep
34、 a normal and healthy state of mind(心态). Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls . It is very natural for boys and girls to contact each other and build up the friendship with the students of the other sex . Generally speaking , we should broaden the circle of the association . We shou
35、ld make as many friends as possible . We should have more friends of the other sex instead of one or two . We should contact the students in public instead of in secret . 2. Contact students of the other sex warmly , generously and sincerely . Dont be too nervous or too shy in contact with a person
36、of the other sex . In that case it is very difficult for you to make a lot of friends , as no one likes a person who is too shy to say a word . If you are too shy a person , you can also find a way out . First of all , you can contact the students with the same interest and hobby with you . As both
37、of you have much in common , you may have much to talk about . If you keep doing like that , little by little , you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others . 3. Dont fall into the ditch(泥潭)of early love . The boys and girls at adolescence(青春期)are rich in feeling and full
38、of imagination . They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age . In my opinion , boys and girls at middle school are too young and too tender to shoulder the heavy duty of love . Early love is a green apple that cant be eaten . An apply won
39、t taste sweet until it is fully ripe(成熟). Do keep out of early love . 56. The main idea of the passage is to .A. tell students to keep away from early love B. give some advice on how to associate between boys and girls C. say contact does good not only to boys but also to girls D. teach boys how to
40、talk with girls 57. The underlined word “ broaden ”in the passage means “ . ”A. close down B. make small C. make broad D. make known58. We should contact the students of the other sex in the following ways EXCEPT .A. with a good state of mind B. in publicC. warmly and generously D. in secret59. A pe
41、rson at adolescence is NOT .A. rich in feelings B. old enough to fall in loveC. full of imagination D. easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love . 60. Which of the following is NOT true ? A. Men and women used not to be allowed to associate with each other . B. Wed better not make only one or
42、two friends of the other sex . C. Some students are too nervous or too shy in contact with a person of the other sex . D. People like a person who always keeps silent . (C)This hotel in the trees is famous in the world . People who know very little about Kenya(肯尼亚), know of Treetops . When King Geor
43、ge VI died , Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops , and when she came down from there , she succeeded to the queen of the country . This hotel , in the middle of the forest , shows the pleasure of Africa . When you visit it , you will be sent into the heart of the forest by local buses , a
44、nd then a quide , with a gun to protect you against big game , will go with you to the House on the Treetops . Before and after dinner , for the whole night if you wish , you can sit on the corridor(走廊), watching animals come to the water pool and the salt . The earliest hotel Treetops was built rou
45、nd a large tree on the opposite side of the water , but this was destroyed by fire and the new hotel Treetops , which is built round several trees , is much bigger . The dinning room at Treetops is small , and as the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests , a clever “ railway service ” has been i
46、nvented . Guests take their food as it passes slowly in front of them , along a line in the center of the table . There are many animals around the Treetops . When you visit them , you can see : Animals and their babies are waiting to greet the guests . Animals are enjoying the Treetops pool in the
47、daylight . A long bodied , long ring tailed , very active catlike animal is a special one coming out at night . He hurts and eats anything he can overpower and is very destructive . He comes for his food every evening . Do not get too near him . as his teeth and claws(爪)can do you harm . These anima
48、ls can be trained and become lovely pets . Some other animals have a thick coating of fur to keep him warm in the cold forest nights . Many buffaloes(水牛)come to the Treetops for water and salt during the day or night . 61. The underlined phrase “ succeeded to ” in Paragraph 1 means “ ” .A. did well in life B. reached a goalC. complete a difficult-task D. gained the right to a ti
