They dug a h
3、ole in the wall of the house.There lived many mice in the house. The woman in the moonlight saw a mouse crawl(爬行) into the house. “Look! In comes one,” she said to the man in the house. He was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled out of the house and said to the one waiting outside, “She found me
4、 when I was just in.” But the thief outside didnt believe him, so he said; “Let us two try to crawl into the house together.” At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too. The woman saw the mice and shouted, “In come two, catch them!” The two thieves were terribly frightened. The man
5、in the house said, “You saw them come in but where are they? I will catch them tonight.” The two thieves started running away at once.The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before. The next day they acted as men selling sweet potatoes and came before the
6、 house. The man and the woman were ploughing in their fields. The rein(缰绳)broke and the woman came home for a rope. She saw two men selling sweet potatoes and wanted to buy some. She picked out two which looked like mice. At the time the man couldnt wait for her any longer in the fields and he ran b
7、ack from the fields to hurry her up. The woman showed the sweet potatoes to the man and said, “How they look like the two of last night.” The man said, “I asked you to fetch a rope, why dont you hurry for it?” The two thieves ran away very quickly without their sweet potatoes.21. The two thieves fai
8、led to steal anything from the house because_.A. they were found out B. they were frightened by what they had heard in the houseC. they didnt work together well with each other D. mice stopped them from doing so22. From the last paragraph, we know that_.A. the two thieves were famous selling sweet p
9、otatoesB. the woman recognized the two thievesC. the woman pretended to know nothing about the two thieves and made fun of themD. the two thieves didnt know that they were not found at all23. The woman said, “How they look like the two of last night.” Here “the two” refers to_.A. the two thieves B.
10、nothing C. the mice D. the ropesBEveryone knows that the French are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeeds or fails?At least one group o
11、f people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs(实业家) in the UK found that 70 percent felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). As a result, the survey said, entrepreneu
12、rs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood”. Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green-eyed monster(怪物)” and the UK is its home. Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people and gave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a littl
13、e, others a great deal. Those given a little money were given the chance to destroy the large amounts of money given to othersbut at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.This seems to prove the entrepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflic
14、ting evidence. The Organization for Econnomic Cooperation and Development(OECD) recently reported that the UK was now the worlds fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British peo
15、ple are not lazy, either.“Its not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a Professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “Its people using their success in a way that seems arrogant(傲慢) or unfair or which separates them from their
16、roots.”Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more
17、people want to be like them.24. What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to?A. One group of people. B. A great survey.C. National character. D. A nation.25. Most of the British top entrepreneurs surveyed believe that _.A. they are not popular simply because they are successfu
18、lB. the British public are hardworkingC. love of success is Britains national characterD. they are considered as “green-eyed monsters”26. What does the result of the Warwich University test show?A. Two thirds of the people tested didnt love money.B. Most people would rather fail than see others succ
19、eed.C. An imaginary amount of money does not attract people.D. Most people are willing to enjoy success with others.27. The writer of the passage seems to suggest that _.A. jealousy is Britains national characterB. British entrepreneurs are not fairly treatedC. the scientists at Warwich University d
20、id a successful testD. the British dislike the entrepreneurs because they do not behave properlyCLONDON(Reuters)Ecotourism is causing a lot of damage to wildlife and may be endangering the survival of the very animals people are flocking to see, according to researchers.Biologists and conservationis
21、tsare worried because polar bears, dolphins, penguins and other creatures are getting stressed and losing weight and some are dying.“Evidence is growing that many animals do not react well to tourists in their backyard,” New Scientist magazine said.The immediate effects researchers have noticed are
22、changes in behavior, heart rates, or stress hormone(荷尔蒙) levels but they fear it could get much worse and over the long term “could endanger the survival of the very wildlife they want to see”.Although money produced through ecotourism, which has been growing at about 10 30 percent a year, has major
23、 benefits for poor countries and people living in rural areas, the Swiss-based World Conservation Union and some governments fear not all projects are audited (审计) and based on environmentally friendly policies, according to the magazine.“The transmission of disease to wildlife, or small changes to
24、wildlife health through disturbance of daily life or increased stress levels, while not obvious to the casual observer, may translate to lower survival and breeding,” said Philip Seddon of the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand.Scientists have noticed that bottleneck dolphins along the nort
25、heastern coast of New Zealand become nervously excited when tourist boats arrive. Similar changes in behavior have been observed in polar bears and yellow-eyed penguins in areas visited by ecotourists are producing smaller babies.Conservationists are not calling for more research into the effect of
26、ecotourism on animals and say the industry must be developed carefully. They also want studies done before new ecotourism projects are started.“The animals welfare should be very important because without them there will be no ecotourism,” said Rochelle Constantine of the University of Auckland in N
