However bridge building experts throughout the world thought that this was a pipe dream. It was not practical. It had never been done before. But Roebling refused to listen to them. He thought about the bridge day and night and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. After much discussion and persuasion he convinced his son Washington, who was a promising engineer himself, that the bridge in fact could be built. Working together for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how it could be accomplished. With great excitement, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.The project started well, but several months after it began, a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was so seriously injured that he was never able to walk, talk or even move again."We told them so", "Crazy men and their crazy dreams", "It's foolish to chase wild visions", the critics said and most thought the project should be scrapped since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge cd be built. In spite of his handicap Washington still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.Washington's wife tried to inspire and pass on her husband's enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too daunted by the task. As he lay in his hospital room, an idea suddenly hit him. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this finger and tapping it on his wife's arm, he slowly developed a code to communicate with her. Then he used this method to tell his wife what the engineers should do. It seemed crazy but the project was under way again. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the bridge was finally completed.qToday the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a tribute to the triumph of one man's spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances.41.

Many people believe that rickshaws are a good way of experiencing a city, close-up, while also cutting down on traffic jams and pollution.In Berlin, one of the first cities to introduce this new mode of transport, more than 200 bike-taxis go along at 15km per hour, past many tourist attractions and city parks."It is completely environmentally friendly; we have new models with an engine to help the driver up the hills but they use renewable energy," said a spokesman for VELOTAXI, the leading rickshaw company which has carried a quarter of a million people this year.While the city still has 7,000 motor-taxis, rickshaw company officials say their taxis' green ethics, speed and safety make them more than just a tourist attraction. While now increasingly out of fashion in Delhi, Berlin people have eagerly accepted the new fleet since their launch in 1997."It's better than a taxi, better than a bus, better than the train," said Ulf Lehman, 36, as he leapt out of a rickshaw near the world famous Brandenburg gate. "It feels so free.""This is something out of the ordinary you feel you are on holiday in Bangkok instead of Berlin," said another traveller.In Amsterdam, driver Peter Jancso said people like to be driven around in his bright yellow rickshaw and pretend to be a queen in a golden carriage. "I like my passengers to feel important," he said as he dropped off another passenger. Another visitor noted how cheap it was compared with a normal taxi. Although increasingly popular in Europe, it is the opposite in India, where hand-pulled rickshaws are considered inhuman and a symbol of India's backward past.Nearly 500 bike-rickshaws are running in London and are not required to pay the city's road tax but things may change as other taxi drivers complain of unfair treatment.46. Where are rickshaws becoming more popular? A. Delhi, Berlin, Paris. B. Amsterdam, Bangkok, Delhi. C. Athens, London, Berlin. D. Berlin, Amsterdam, London.47. Why are rickshaws no longer as widely used in India as in the past? A. They are a reminder of a bad period in India's history. B. They have been banned because they are too cruel. C. The streets of India are too crowded for them to move through easily. D. Indians now prefer to travel by car because they are richer.48. What does the underlined sentence "This is something out of the ordinary . you feel you are on holiday in Bangkok instead of Berlin" (para. 7) suggest? A. The passenger didn't like taking a rickshaw as it reminded him of Bangkok. B. The passenger enjoyed being on holiday in Berlin more than in Bangkok. C. The passenger was impressed when taking a rickshaw and considered it unusual. D. The passenger disapproved of rickshaws because they were not original to Berlin.49. Which of the following is mentioned in the text? A. Rickshaws may need to pay tax for causing traffic jams. B. Rickshaws and taxis are treated differently in London. C. Rickshaws will eventually take the place of taxis. D. Rickshaws will always be a cheap means of transport.50. What is the author's attitude towards rickshaws? A. He gives no personal opinion. B.

In addition, illegal wildlife trade, climate change and commercial hunting for meat are also pressuring existing primate populations.What's more, the problem is getting more serious. The number of species on the organizations Red List - listing those primate species most threatened and in very serious danger of dying out - has increased by 3 to 25 since .Russell Mittermeier, the chief researcher of the WCU report, said, "You could fit all the surviving members of these 25 species in a single football stadium. So the problem is obviously urgent."The scientists, who drew up the Red List, believe that the situation is now so bad that if action is not taken immediately, it will result in primate species becoming extinct - something which has not happened in over a century.The loss of habitat caused by the clearing of forests for wood, farmland and fuel continues to be the main reason for the declining number of primates, according to the report, and the problem was most severe in Asia.The loss of forest trees is also responsible for approximately 20 percent of all greenhouse gases - more than all the cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes in the world combined.Mr Mittermeier added, "By preserving the world's remaining forests, we save primates and protect other animals while preventing more pollution from entering the atmosphere to warm the climate."51. What is the main subject of the report discussed in the text? A. Climate change. B. Loss of animal habitat. C. Endangered animals. D. Animal protection.52. According to the text, when did an ape or monkey species last die out? A. In 1908. B. In . C. Over a hundred years ago. D. Almost a hundred years ago.53. How many animals were on the Red List in ? A. 19. B. 22. C. 25. D. 28.54. The spokesman refers to 'a football stadium' in paragraph 5 to stress that _. A. the animals enjoy playing sports B. there are not many of these animals left C. these animals should be placed there for protection D. the report was announced there55. What is the main cause of the greenhouse gas problem according to the text? A. Aeroplanes. B. Road vehicles. C. Factory pollution. D. Loss of trees.参考答案完形填空2130: ABDAC BACDA语法填空nfluential, 2.in, 3.but, 4.bravely, 5.than, 6.when, 7. her , 8. and 9. Third, 10. because阅读理解41A 42. B 43. D 44. B 45. C 46. D 47. A 48. C 49. B 50.
