When she was 14, her elder brother hid it playfully, along with a couple of pieces of their mothers jewelry, inside the heel（鞋后跟）of their mothers shoe. The pendant still has a tiny mark from where it was hit by one of the nails It was late 1944, and because of the Second World War, the Eberts were being forced to give up any objects of value and fled from place to place.They firstly were forced to live in the refugee(难民) camp in their hometownThen Lily Ebert, together with her family，was led into a dark, airless cattle truck with 70 or 80 others The small man waiting as they came off the train was Dr. Josef Mengele, and the place was AuschwitzWith one movement，he sent people to the right or leftHer mother and brother were sent left，straight to what the survivors later found out was the gas chamber(毒气室)，and never came outShe and her remaining two sisters were sent to the right To Lily Ebert，the pendant and her mothers jewelry accompanied her just like her mother，shining her darkest daysThe refugee camps supply of wooden shoes ran outThen, when the heel wore away,Lily Ebert hid her pendant and other jewels inside her daily piece of breadIf she had been caught，she would have been killed immediatelyBut she took the risk，because they were the only things her mother left her. After the war, Lily Ebert gave her mothers jewelry to her sisters. She continues to wear the pendant to this day “Not only did I survive,” said Lily Ebert，sweetly and humorously，“but my jewelry that they didnt want me to keep, survived with me. I face up to the experience now.”24. Why did Lily Eberts brother hide the pendant in the heel? ATo keep it safe BTo make a joke Cto possess the pendant. D. To have a mark on it25. What can we learn from paragraph 3 ?ALily Ebert and her sisters were sent to hospitalBDr. Josef Mengele was arrested finallyCMost people died on the way to the stationDMrs. Ebert and her son were killed26. What did Lily Ebert in Auschwitz regard the pendant and the jewelry as ?AThe only things to guard herBSupplies in the darkest daysCHer last connection to her motherDHer hope to be reunited with her family27What do Lily Eberts words convey? AShe can look at the past positively BShe still remembers her mothers jewelry CShe has learnt much from the sad experience DShe will miss her family in a reasonable wayCNature will provide a key warning sign just before the Yellowstone volcanos eruption（爆发），according to a surprising documentary(纪录片) The supervolcano，located in Yellowstone National Park in the US, has erupted three times in history：2.1 million years ago, 1.2 million years ago and 640,000 years agoScientists have previously warned how they may have as little as two weeks to prepare a removal(搬迁) before an earthquake occurHowever，despite predictive technology，nature could prove to be the most valuable indicator of a coming eruption. YouTube channel Underworld produced a mini-series called“What If Yellowstone Erupted Tomorrow ?”, providing an understanding of what could happen Referring to an eruption，the documentary stated：“Before the eruption，there would be serious warning signsPowerful earthquakes would be evident from unusual behavior from animalsThis would be a big clue even before the ground began to swellEventually one of the earthquakes would break the layer of rock that holds the magma(岩浆)inFlights would then be grounded in the US and maybe even the world-life would come to a stop Yellowstone National Park holds a wide variety of wild animals，including bison，bears，sheep，mountain goats and many moreThe last time Yellowstone erupted, 2,500 times more volcanic material was produced than in the 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens. This created a mass of erupted material so that it covered about 60 percent of the US in a thick layer of ashShould this happen again? It is likely that the animals would escape from the area for safety，but they would struggle to make it out alive28. What does paragraph 2 intend to tell us ? AThe Yellowstone volcano has erupted four times so far BNature is a better indicator of an eruption CPredictive technology gives effective warnings DScientists can warn long before an earthquake happens29What do the underlined words “Flights would then be grounded” mean? AFlights would come to the ground BFlights would be controlled from the ground CFlights would be stopped DFlights would be buried in the ground30What can we learn from the text ? APredictive technology is more effective at warning signs than nature BAn earthquake and a volcano eruption will happen together CAnimals are more sensitive to danger than humans DPeople can avoid a disaster if they know natures warnings31What is the writers purpose in writing the text? ATo give people some useful information about volcanoes BTo inform readers about the Yellowstone volcano CTo tell readers how animals behave before an earthquakeDTo call on people to pay attention to natures warning signsDThey hide in trees, hang from helicopter, and even follow people down on motorcyclesall so that they can snap a shot of a celebrity(名人). They are paparazziphotographers who make a living by taking pictures of the rich and famous.This September, California, a state with plenty of celebrities, passed a law aimed at taking action against paparazzi. The law forbids photographers from entering private property to take pictures, from using high-tech devices(设备) to take pictures of people on private property, and from “persistently(一直) following in order to take a picture”. Violators(违反者) can be fined or spend time in prison. The United State Congress is considering passing a similar law.Supporters of the California law say it will protect the privacy of celebrities, whom paparazzi have been bothering for years. Opponents(反对者) say the law restricts(限制) photo-journalists from doing their job.Most celebrities seem to like having their pictures taken when they are in public at award shows or other events. After all, its free publicity. But when theyre not in public, they say, photographers should leave them alone. Yet paparazzi have been known to secretly look in windows and worse. Actor Michael J. Fox said that paparazzi have even “tried to pretend to be medical personnel at the hospital where my wife was giving birth to our son”.Celebrities have as much right to their privacy as anyone else, supporters of the law state. Supporters further argue that the California law is a fair way to keep the press from getting worse, because the law still allows photographers to do their job. It only punishes them, supporters say, when they violate celebrities privacy.Opponents of the law say it violates(违反) the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which guarantees that no laws will be made to limit “the freedom of speech, or of the press”. Although some people might not consider paparazzi a part of the legal press, the California law does not single out paparazzi. It applies to photographers working for any publication. Opponents of the law are also concerned about its wording. “Does persistently mean following someone for six minutes, six seconds, or six days?” asked lawyer Douglas Mirell. The wording of the law is too vague（含糊的）, critics complain, and could be used to punish almost any news photographers.The United States needs a free press to keep the public informed about important news, paparazzi law opponents say. Limiting the press in any way, they argue, limits the freedom of all. 32.Which of the following will be considered illegal by the new California law?A. Paparazzi hiring helicopters as a fast means of transportation.B. Paparazzi rushing towards filming sites on motorcycles.C. Paparazzi taking photos of famous people with high-tech cameras.D. Paparazzi slipping into the house of a famous person to take a picture.33. Supporters of the new law believe that _ .A. privacy of famous people needs special protectionB. it prevents the media from getting worseC. it gives photographers a fair way to competeD. punishment forces paparazzi to quit their job34. Opponents of the new law are concerned that _ .A. some photographers will be wrongly accusedB. people will not be informed of important newsC. the First Amendment will be changedD. it will violate paparazzis privacy35. What is the authors attitude towards the new California law?A. Approving B. CriticalC. Neutral D. doubtful第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。There is nobody in this world who never faced a failure.
