短文理解1

Thousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano broke out. The hot liquid piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea.
As time went on, hot sun and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces. Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.
Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow first. Only they, in sunlight, could produce food from the minerals of the soil, water and air. While many animals landed on the island, they could find no food. A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch. Insects couldn’t stay until there were plants fro them to eat. So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island.
31. The passage centers on ____D_______.
A. how an undersea volcano broke out
B. how an island rose up in the sea
C. how soil was formed on a new island
D. how life began on a volcano-produced island

A. hidden

D. bare
34. The order of coming into being on the island is __D_______.
A. soil, plants and animals
B. soil, little creatures and plants
C. soil, birds and plants
D. soil, human beings and animals
35. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?___D______
A. Spiders were the first life that could live on the island.
B. The island is far away from any piece of land.
C. Insects could not live on the island without plants.
D. Plants were brought to the island by human being.

In the last 500 years, nothing about people—not their clothes, ideas, or languages – has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.
The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine” of 1845-6, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America.
There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the World’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It is first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.
According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a goatherd named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.
36. According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years? ___A___
A. Food C. Potato

A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything else.
B. they were forced to emigrate to America
C. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potato
D. the potato harvest was bad
39. Coffee originally came from ___D_______.
A. Brazil B. Colombia
C. Ethiopia D. Arabia
40. The Arabic legend is used to prove that ___D_______.
A. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi

D. coffee drinks were first made by Arabs

Who will stage the games?
Preparing for the Olympics Games is a huge undertaking. Just like the athletes, the host city spends years getting ready for the event. Before deciding which city will host the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has to examine bids from all over the world. Bidding for the games begins about ten years in advance. Without preparing a very strong bid(1), a city will not win the competition to host the games. Beijing was chosen for the 2023 games from five bidders—Osaka, Paris, Toronto and Istanbul.(2)
Why does it take so long to prepare?
Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money. Holding the World Cup in 2023 in Japan and South Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiums had to be built, as well as many hotels and an improved transport system. In Beijing, after winning the bid the government began major construction projects—the extension of the underground, the improvement of the airport and the building of new motorways. Each host city must also build an Olympic village for the athletes. By planting trees and creating parks, the city becomes more attractive for tourists.
Why do countries want to host the Olympic Games?
Hosting the games has a major effect on the economy and brings international prestige to the country. Thousands and thousands of visitors come to the games and the host cities are permanently improved.
41. Bidding for the Olympic Games usually starts ___D_______ before the games are really held.
A. two years
B. eight years
C. one year
D. ten years
42. Beijing was one of the _B_______ bidders for the 2023 games.
A. four
B. five
C. ten
D. three
43. The World Cup 2023 was held in _____A_____.
A. Japan
B. South Korea
C. China
D. A and B
44. What construction projects did Beijing start after winning the bid? ___D________
A. The extension of the underground.
B. The improvement of the airport.
C. The building of new motorways.
D. All of the above.
45. Why do countries want to host the Olympic Games? ____D_______
A. Because it has a major effect on the economy.
B. Because it brings international prestige to the country.
C. Because the host cities are permanently improved.
D. All of the above.

People who cannot tell all colors apart are said to be color blind. Most color-blind people can see yellow and blues, but confuse reds with greens. It is very rare for a person be to blind to all colors, but they may see everything in shades of black, white, and gray.
It is interesting to note that many color-blind people don’t even realize that they are color-blind. They don’t know that the colors they are seeing and naming are not the actual colors that people with normal vision can see. This can be particularly dangerous when a color-blind person confuses the red and green of a traffic light.
Color blindness is thought to be inherited. And although doctors have thought up tests to determine color blindness, there is no cure to treatment for it.
F 46. A color-blind person can tell red and green apart correctly.
T 47. Many color-blind people are unaware that they are color-blind.
F 48. It’s especially dangerous for a color-blind person to cross a street when there are no traffic lights at the cross of the streets.
NG 49. A color-blind person is not allowed to drive.
F 50. Up to now, doctors have found a way to free a person from his color blindness.
