He knew the animals, insects, and reptiles（爬行动物）of Africa very well. Rob knew them so well that he became careless. One night, while camping alone, Rob reached out to pick up a large piece of wood and felt something bite his arm. Rob didn't think much about it. But a little later, his arm began to ache. When he looked closely at it, he immediately saw two teeth marks in the skin of his arm. He realized that a poisonous snake had bitten him. His pulse became rapid. Rob's mind raced as he thought about what he had to do to survive. Rob knew that he should remain calm, stay still, keep the injured arm below the level of his heart and avoid eating or drinking anything, especially anything with alcohol in it. He also knew that cutting the wound to suck the poison out was a bad idea. He used his two-way radio to call for help. As he waited, he washed the bite with soap and water. To help slow the spread of the venom（毒液）, he wrapped a bandage two inches above the bite and made it loose enough to slip a finger under it so that it would not cut off the flow of blood. Then, after about half an hour, his friend Mike arrived. Mike took Rob to the local hospital, where Rob was given antiveninan antidote for snake venom.

You can put it into drinks or take it as medicine. Ginger has many uses, but none as beautiful as when it is used in a gingerbread house. Past and presentGingerhe key part of gingerbread and the houses themselveshas a long history. It is believed that ginger was used as early as 2,000 B. C. in China. Gingerbread houses were first written about during the 15th century. But it was the 19'th century fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel" that started the trend. As European immigrants made their way around the world, so did gingerbread houses!One example occurred in the town of Belleville in the 1850s. As large numbers of German immigrants moved there, many brought along their gingerbread house recipes. Today, during the holidays, Belleville hosts a "Gingerbread Walk" through its downtown area. Along the path, shop owners display beautifully-made gingerbread houses and other gingerbread creations. The event allows visitors and locals alike to enjoy Belleville's tastiest tradition.

CBASE JumpingBASE jumping is a very dangerous sport of using a parachute to jump from fixed objects. It has become popular with those individuals who are constantly looking for new and exciting things to do. Because BASE jumping is very dangerous, it is sometimes considered a “stunt”（绝技）or "daredevil activity" rather than a sport. BASE stands for the four categories of fixed launch points for a BASE jump: building, antennae, span（bridge）, and earth（cliff）. "BASE numbers" are awarded to those jumpers who have completed at least one jump from each of the categories. A BASE number qualifies a participant as a recognized BASE jumper. Carl Boenish made the first official BASE jump from the Troll Wall in Norway in 1984. Unfortunately, Carl Boenish was killed two days after that first BASE jump as he tried to make another BASE jump off the Troll Wall. Improvements in equipment have helped reduce BASE jumping deaths. Still, many people, including experienced and skilled jumpers, are still injured or killed every year. There are no reliable statistics on the number of people killed or injured while BASE jumping, but it is certainly more dangerous than skydiving. Because of the high death rate, BASE jumping has not gained widespread acceptance. This is also one of the reasons that it is illegal in many countries, A BASE jumper needs to get permission to use both the place from which the jump starts and the landing area. Some places, like the Troll Wall, are banned because of the high level of danger. However, many sites are still open to jumpers. BASE jumping is something that teenagers shouldn't do. It can easily injure or kill them. It also requires a lot of time, energy and money. As parents expect their children to have good judgment, they should think hard before they do anything that is really dangerous. 48. What is the author's attitude towards BASE jumping?A. It should be banned. B. It should be encouraged. C. The jumpers should be careful. D. More sites should be open to jumpers. 49. The author shows his viewpoint by _. A. listing the numbersB. using a famous sayingC. explaining causes and effectsD. showing the facts and examples50. Which of the following is true?A. Carl Boenish died in the first BASE jump from the Troll Wall in 1984. B. Even experienced jumpers can be injured or killed in a certain jump. C. Teens' parents don't support BASE jumping because it costs money. D. A BASE jumper can freely choose any place to start the jump. 第二部分. 听力理解第三节：（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）听下面一段对话，根据题目要求在相应的横线上写下第1题至第5题的关键信息。每小题仅填写一个词。这段对话你将听两遍。A Dentist ResevationPatien
